Hertz

Hertz measures cycles per second.

History: The hertz is named after Heinrich Hertz and is the SI unit of frequency.

Current use: Used for waves, electronics, optics, sound, radio, computing, and periodic phenomena.

Also written as Hz, hertz, cycles per second.

Kilohertz

One kilohertz is equal to 1000 hertz.

History: Kilohertz is common for audio and low-frequency electronics.

Current use: Used for audio, sensors, communications, and instrumentation.

Also written as kHz, kilohertz.
