How do I convert RPM to Hz?

Divide by 60. Hertz counts cycles per second and RPM counts revolutions per minute, so a motor at 1,800 RPM turns at 30 Hz.

How many Hz is 1 GHz?

One billion hertz (1,000,000,000 Hz), or 1,000 MHz. A 3.5 GHz processor clock ticks 3.5 billion times per second, with each cycle lasting about 0.29 nanoseconds.

What is the relationship between frequency and period?

They are reciprocals: period = 1 / frequency. A 50 Hz mains supply completes one cycle every 20 milliseconds, and a 1 kHz tone every 1 millisecond.

Frequency

Hertz, kilohertz, megahertz and RPM.

About Frequency

Convert a frequency between hertz, kilohertz, megahertz, gigahertz and revolutions per minute. Enter one value and every other unit is shown at once.

How to use

Type a value and pick its unit. The default is 1 gigahertz.
Every other unit updates as you type; each row has its own Copy button, and Copy on the panel copies the whole table.
Results are rounded to eight decimal places and formatted for your locale.

Conversion factors

All units convert through hertz (cycles per second):

Unit	Hertz
kilohertz	1 000
megahertz	1 000 000
gigahertz	1 000 000 000
revolution per minute	1 / 60

RPM is treated as one revolution per cycle, so 60 RPM is 1 Hz. The value must be greater than zero. Very small results, such as 1 Hz in gigahertz, round to zero at eight decimal places.

Example

3 000 RPM → 50 Hz · 0.05 kHz · 0.00005 MHz
