Revolutions per minute velocity. The corresponding basic SI derived unit is s or Hz. When measuring angular speed, the unit radians per second is used. Formally, hertz (Hz) and radian per second (rad/s) are two different names for the same SI unit, s. However, they are used for two different but proportional ISQ quantities: frequency and angular frequency (angular speed, magnitude of angular velocity). The conversion between a frequency (measured in hertz) and an angular velocity (measured in radians per second) are: Thus a disc rotating at 60 rpm is said to be rotating at either 2 rad/s or 1 Hz, where the
Frequency third above the European frequency). The frequency of the 'hum' in an audio recording can show where the recording was made, in countries using a European, or an American, grid frequency. Frequency Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time. It is also referred to as temporal "frequency", which emphasizes the contrast to spatial frequency and angular frequency. The period is the duration of time of one cycle in a repeating event, so the period is the reciprocal of the frequency. For example: if a newborn baby's heart beats at a frequency of 120
