The SI unit for period is the second. For counts per unit of time, the SI unit for frequency is hertz (Hz), named after the German physicist Heinrich Hertz; 1 Hz means that an event repeats once per second.A previous name for this unit was cycles per second (cps).or each dot, f is the frequency in hertz (Hz) â meaning the number of times per second (i.e. cycles per second) that it flashes â while T is the flashes' period in seconds (s), meaning the number of seconds per cycle. Each T and f are reciprocal.
Definition of Amplitude and Period. The amplitude and period of a sinusoidal function represent the height and cycle length of a curve, respectively, which are important characteristics of the waveform.he period is the distance required for the function to complete one full cycle. For the sine function, the amplitude is given by and the period is defined as. The same is true for a cosine function.
