  2. Rotational frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_frequency

    Its SI unit is the reciprocal seconds (s −1); other common units of measurement include the hertz (Hz), cycles per second (cps), and revolutions per minute (rpm). [ 1 ] [ a ] [ b ] Rotational frequency can be obtained dividing angular frequency , ω, by a full turn (2 π radians ): ν =ω/(2π rad).

  3. Methods-time measurement - Wikipedia

    The films were then projected frame-by-frame and analysed and classified in to a predetermined format of Basic Motions. These Basic Motions were Reach, Grasp, Move, Position, Release, etc. A motion was taken to begin on the frame in which the hand first started performing the motion and was taken to end on the frame in which the motion was ...

  4. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    A pendulum with a period of 2.8 s and a frequency of 0.36 Hz. For cyclical phenomena such as oscillations, waves, or for examples of simple harmonic motion, the term frequency is defined as the number of cycles or repetitions per unit of time.

  5. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    millisecond: 10 −3 s: One thousandth of a second. Shortest time unit used on stopwatches. jiffy (electronics) ~ 10 −3 s: Used to measure the time between alternating power cycles. Also a casual term for a short period of time. centisecond: 10 −2 s: One hundredth of a second. decisecond: 10 −1 s: One tenth of a second. second: 1 s: SI ...

  6. Pulse-repetition frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-repetition_frequency

    Both are measured in terms of cycle per second, or hertz. The PRF is normally much lower than the frequency. The PRF is normally much lower than the frequency. For instance, a typical World War II radar like the Type 7 GCI radar had a basic carrier frequency of 209 MHz (209 million cycles per second) and a PRF of 300 or 500 pulses per second.

  7. Normalized frequency (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalized_frequency...

    The normalized quantity, ′ =, has the unit cycle per sample regardless of whether the original signal is a function of time or distance. For example, when f {\displaystyle f} is expressed in Hz ( cycles per second ), f s {\displaystyle f_{s}} is expressed in samples per second .

  8. Wavenumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavenumber

    Ordinary wavenumber is defined as the number of wave cycles divided by length; it is a physical quantity with dimension of reciprocal length, expressed in SI units of cycles per metre or reciprocal metre (m −1). Angular wavenumber, defined as the wave phase divided by time, is a quantity with dimension of angle per length and SI units of ...

  9. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    In aerodynamics, the normal shock tables are a series of tabulated data listing the various properties before and after the occurrence of a normal shock wave. [1] With a given upstream Mach number, the post-shock Mach number can be calculated along with the pressure, density, temperature, and stagnation pressure ratios.
