How to Convert megahertz to millihertzmillihertz

1 MHz = 1000000000 mHz
1 mHz = 1e-9 MHz

Example: convert 87 MHz to mHz:
87 MHz = 87 x 1000000000 = 87000000000 mHz

megahertz

Definition: A megahertz (symbol: MHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one million (1,000,000) hertz (Hz). The hertz, in turn, is the SI unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second.

History/origin: The megahertz is derived from the hertz, named after the German physicist Heinrich Hertz, who made significant contributions to the understanding of electromagnetic waves. The prefix 'mega-' denotes a factor of 10^6, adhering to the SI system of units.

Current use: Megahertz is commonly used to measure frequencies in radio broadcasting (e.g., FM radio), television signals, wireless communication (e.g., Wi-Fi), and the clock speeds of computer processors. It is a standard unit in telecommunications, computing, and electronics.

millihertz

Definition: A millihertz (mHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one thousandth (1/1000) of a hertz (Hz). The hertz, in turn, is the SI unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second.

History/origin: The millihertz is derived from the hertz, named after the German physicist Heinrich Hertz, who made significant contributions to the understanding of electromagnetic waves. The prefix 'milli-' denotes a factor of 10^-3, adhering to the SI system of units.

Current use: Millihertz is used to measure very low frequencies, often encountered in fields like geophysics (e.g., measuring seismic waves), biology (e.g., measuring slow biological rhythms), and some areas of electronics and signal processing where extremely slow oscillations or events are analyzed.
