Kilohertz (kHz) - Definition and Overview

What is Kilohertz?

Kilohertz is a measure of frequency equal to one thousand cycles per second. Kilohertz can be abbreviated as kHZ.

Summary

  • Kilohertz (kHz) is a unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one thousand hertz (1 kHz = 10^3 Hz)
  • It is commonly used to measure frequencies in radio broadcasting, audio signals, and other applications where higher frequencies are involved.

Centihertz (cHz) - Definition and Overview

What is Centihertz?

Centihertz is a measure of frequency equal to one by hundredth(1/100) of a cycle per second. Centihertz can be abbreviated as cHZ.

Summary

  • Centihertz (cHz) is a unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one hundredth of a hertz (1 cHz = 10^-2 Hz)
  • It is used to measure relatively low frequencies, often in specialized scientific and engineering applications.

How to Convert Kilohertz to Centihertz?

1 Kilohertz is equal to 100000 Centihertz. To convert Kilohertz to Centihertz, use this simple formula:

Centihertz = Kilohertz x 100000

So, just multiply the number of Kilohertz by 100000 to get equivalent value in Centihertz.

Example 1:

Convert 5 Kilohertz to Centihertz
5 x 100000 = 500000 Centihertz

Example 2:

Convert 7.5 Kilohertz to Centihertz
7.5 x 100000 = 750000 Centihertz
