  • Frequency of Electromagnetic Waves: Understanding Hertz (Hz)
    The property of electromagnetic waves measured in Hertz is frequency.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Frequency refers to the number of wave cycles that pass a given point in one second.

    * Hertz (Hz) is the unit of measurement for frequency. One Hertz represents one cycle per second.

    So, when we say a radio wave has a frequency of 100 MHz (megahertz), it means that 100 million wave cycles pass a point every second.
