How to Convert millihertz to kilohertzkilohertz

1 mHz = 0.000001 kHz
1 kHz = 1000000 mHz

Example: convert 25 mHz to kHz:
25 mHz = 25 x 0.000001 = 0.000024999999999999998 kHz

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.

kilohertz

Definition: A kilohertz (symbol: kHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one thousand (1000) hertz (Hz). The hertz, in turn, is the SI unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second.

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

Current use: Kilohertz is used to measure frequencies in the range of audio signals, radio waves (particularly AM radio), and some computer hardware components. It is a common unit in electronics, telecommunications, and signal processing.
