In mathematical terms, the frequency is the number of complete vibrational cycles of a medium per a given amount of time. Given this definition, it is reasonable that the quantity frequency would have units of cycles/second, waves/second, vibrations/second, or something/second. Another unit for frequency is the Hertz (abbreviated Hz) where 1 Hz is equivalent to 1 cycle/second.
Angular Frequency. Angular frequency, f, is defined as the number of circular revolutions in a given time interval. It is commonly measured in units of Hertz (Hz), where 1 Hz = 1 s â1. For example, the second hand on a clock completes one revolution every 60 seconds and therefore has an angular frequency of 1 / 60 Hz. = 1/f. Since we know that the frequency of the second hand is 1 / 60 Hz, we can quickly see that the period of the second hand is 60 s. It takes 60 seconds for the second hand to complete a revolution, so the period of the second hand is 60 seconds.
