Microwaves used in microwave ovens typically operate at a frequency of 2.45 GHz (gigahertz). This frequency is chosen because it is ideal for heating food and creating the energy needed for cooking.
Infrared light has a frequency range of about 300 GHz to 400 THz. The frequency of infrared radiation falls between microwaves and visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Cycles per second is the correct unit for mechanical waves. Hertz (Hz) is the correct unit for electromagnetic waves like light, radio, and microwaves. Most people use Hertz for everything, but that is not correct usage.
To convert seconds to hertz, you simply take the reciprocal of the time in seconds. For example, if you have a time of 0.5 seconds, the conversion to hertz would be 1 / 0.5 = 2 hertz. Hertz is the unit of frequency, representing the number of cycles per second.
The abbreviation for hertz is Hz.
One gigahertz is equal to 1 billion hertz.

The question is not correctly phrased, Infrared is electromagnetic radiation which consists of waves. Amplitude is a measure of the maximum "strength" or height of the wave and therefore will have a whole range of values from 0 upwards. Infrared does not have a specific range of amplitude however it will have a range of frequencies ( visible light Red end 4 x 1014 Hertz - 3 x 1011 Hertz Microwaves ) and wavelength (visible light Red end 750 nanometres - 1000000 nm nanometres Microwaves)
The total range of all electromagnetic waves encompasses from approximately 1023 hertz to 0 hertz or, in corresponding wavelengths, from 10 -13 centimeter to infinity. This includes cosmic-ray photons, gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves, and radio waves.

Unsure.
Hertz is the unit of measure for frequency, named after Heinrich Hertz
No he did not. Microwaves were first theoretically predicted by James Maxwell in 1864 (137 years after Newton's death) They were first actually produced by Heinrich Hertz in 1888. (161 years after Newton's death.)
