Hertz The dimension of the unit hertz is 1/time (1/T). Expressed in base SI units it is 1/second (1/s). In English, "hertz" is also used as the plural form. As an SI unit, Hz can be prefixed; commonly used multiples are kHz (kilohertz, 10 Hz), MHz (megahertz, 10 Hz), GHz (gigahertz, 10 Hz) and THz (terahertz, 10 Hz). One hertz simply means "one cycle per second" (typically that which is being counted is a complete cycle); 100 Hz means "one hundred cycles per second", and so on. The unit may be applied to any periodic event—for example, a clock might be
Mole (unit) of "exactly" 12 g. However, on 16 November 2018, after a meeting of scientists from more than 60 countries at the General Conference on Weights and Measures in Versailles, France, organised by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM), all SI Units will be defined as constants. This means that any SI Unit, including the mole, will not be defined using physical objects but rather they will be defined by constants that are, in their nature, exact. Such changes will officially come into effect on 20 May 2019. For example, one mole of hydrogen atoms, will be defined as
