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.

What is Mega Hertz?

Hertz is the SI unit for frequency. 1 Hertz equals 1 cycle per second. Mega is the prefix meaning 1 million. So one MegaHertz (MHz) is one million Hertz or one million cycles per second. When referring to say a computer processor running at 2000 MHz, this means that the core clock speed of the processor is switching (or changing state) 2000 000 000 times each second.


How many cycles per second is equal to one megahertz?

No! 300 Megahertz is equal to 300 MILLION cycles per second. The unit "Hertz" is defined as cycles per second, and the prefix "Mega" means millions.

What does mhz in computer terms?

mHz means milli hertz, MHz means mega hertz. Hertz is a measure of frequency, or cycles per second. milli hertz is how many cycles per millisecond or 0.001 seconds.


What is GHz and MHz?

MHz stands for Mega Hertz. Hertz or Hz is unit for frequency and is represented by inverse of time unit i.e. second(-1) i.e. 1/second or per second. Frequency = 1/ time period in seconds 1MHz is 10^6 or 1000000 Hz.


What frequency is 72.790 mhz?

The Hertz is a unit of frequency(Hz). 1 Hertz is equal 1 cycle per second. 2 Hertz is equal 2 cycles per second. ... mega means 10^6 mhz means megahertz what is 10^6 Hertz = 1000000 Hz 72.790 mhz is equal a 72.790 * 1000000 Hz. It is a high frequency. Currently the computer processors are measured in gigahertz(GHz) = 10^9 =1000000000.
