## What is Frequency Conversion?

Frequency conversion involves converting measurements of repetition rate from one unit to another. Frequency describes how often something repeats per unit of time and is essential in electronics, music, physics, and engineering. From radio waves to CPU speeds to musical pitch, understanding frequency is crucial in our technological world.

// Common Frequency Units Explained

export const Hertz (Hz)

// The SI unit of frequency, equal to one cycle per second. Named after Heinrich Hertz. Human hearing ranges from about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.

export const Kilohertz (kHz)

// Equal to 1,000 Hz. Used for radio frequencies, audio sampling rates, and some electronic signals.

export const Megahertz (MHz)

// Equal to 1,000,000 Hz. Common for FM radio (88-108 MHz), computer memory speeds, and older processor speeds.

export const Gigahertz (GHz)

// Equal to 1,000,000,000 Hz. Modern CPU speeds, WiFi frequencies (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz), and microwave frequencies.

export const RPM

// Revolutions per minute. Common for engines, motors, and rotating machinery. To convert to Hz, divide by 60.

## Frequently Asked Questions

01 ### Q: How do I convert RPM to Hz?

/**

Divide RPM by 60 to get Hz. For example, 3,600 RPM = 60 Hz (one rotation per second).

*/

02 ### Q: What frequency is middle C?

/**

Middle C (C4) on a piano is approximately 261.63 Hz. The A above middle C (A4) is the standard tuning reference at 440 Hz.
