Answer
The standard unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz), named after physicist Heinrich Hertz. One Hertz equals one cycle per second. Larger units include kilohertz (kHz = 1,000 Hz), megahertz (MHz = 1,000,000 Hz), and gigahertz (GHz = 1,000,000,000 Hz). These units help express different frequency ranges more conveniently.
