How many mega hertz in a cycle per second?

Another name for Hertz is cycles per second. So a Megahertz is 1 million cycles per second.


How many watts in 50 MHz?

There is no correlation; 5 megahertz is a measure of frequency (5 million cycles/actions per second) whereas 5 watts is a measure of power.


What is The significance of the term megahertz?

Megahertz is ACTUALLY a measurement of the speed of a microprocessor. How fast a computer can process instructions depends partially on the speed of the microprocessor, which is determined by it's clock speed, word size, and cach size, and whether it is single or dual core. Clock speed is measured in megahertz (MHz), millions of cycles per second, or in gigahertz (GHz), billions of cycles per second.


How do you convert meters per second to hertz?

Hertz are a measurement of frequency, where meters per second is a measurement of velocity (speed). The two cannot be converted. Hertz is cycles per second, like a radio wave or sound wave. An example is a radio station transmitting on 10.0 MegaHertz (MHz) This indicates the radio wave oscillates 10 Million times per second. Meters per second can be used to measure, for example, the velocity of a car or bullet. Trying to convert frequency to speed would be like trying to convert Miles per hour to liters... it doesn't work.


How many cycles per second is 5mhz?

To be very technical, it depends on what the 'm' means in the question. If the frequency in the question is 5 mHz = 5 mega-Hertz then mega = million, 5 mega = 5 million so 5 mega Hertz = 5 million Hertz. 5 mHz = 5 million cycles per second But a small 'm' often means 'milli'. That's probably not what you meant, but if it is, then 5 mHz = 5 milli Hertz = 0.005 Hz That would mean 0.005 of a cycle per second, or 200 seconds to finish one whole cycle.
