Number of complete cycles in a second is a whole number where as it is not?

The frequency does not have to be a whole number. 3 cycles in two seconds is equivalent to 1.5 cycles per second so the frequency is 1.5 Hertz. That is not a whole number!

What is the number of crests and troughs that pass a point per second?
That is twice the frequency. Frequency is equal to the number of complete cycles which pass a point per second.
What is the number of wave or cycles per second called?
The number of waves or cycles per second is called frequency, typically measured in Hertz (Hz).
Is 1 Hz is equal to 1 wavelength passing a stationary point in 1 minute?
1 Hz is the number of complete cycles of a wave in one second. If after 1 second there is 5 complete cycles of the wave, that means the frequency is 5 Hz.
Is 1 Hz equal to 1 wavelength passing a stationary point in 1 minute?
1 Hz is the number of complete cycles of a wave in one second. If after 1 second there is 5 complete cycles of the wave, that means the frequency is 5 Hz.
What does the unit hertz refer to in an AC circuit?
It refers to the number of cycles (frequency) of the a/c source per second; 1Hz=1 complete cycle per second.
Number of cycles accruing in 1 second is known as what?
hertz
What is the number of repeated cycles per second?
Frequency Bro!! :)
Is measured by the number of ticks per second?
The number of cycles per second, or frequency, is expressed in hertz, abbreviated Hz.
What measures by the number of ticks per second?
The number of cycles per second, or frequency, is expressed in hertz, abbreviated Hz.
What is measured by the number of ticks per second?
The number of cycles per second, or frequency, is expressed in hertz, abbreviated Hz.
Is frequency same as pulse?
NO; frequency is the number of cycles per second or micro second. Pulse is the number of pulses per second in a pulsed Radar
What is the number of cycles per second of a wave?
The number of cycles per second of a wave is typically referred to as its frequency and is measured in Hertz (Hz). A frequency of 1 Hz means one cycle per second.
