Hertz

Hertz is the unit of frequency named after Heinrich Hertz, a German physicist. The Hertz measures the number of times a object vibrates or cycles per second. It is commonly used to describe the frequency of sound waves, radio waves, and even the frequency of your annoying coworker’s droll.

The Hertz is important because it helps us understand the world around us. For example, without the Hertz, we wouldn’t know when our favorite songs were playing on the radio, and we’d have to listen to Nickelback all day.

But the Hertz can also be a source of confusion, especially when trying to impress your date at the science museum. For instance, saying “I love the sound of your voice at 60 Hertz” will only result in confusion and potentially a restraining order.

We hope this article has helped demystify the Hertz for you. And who knows, maybe the next time you hear someone talking about Hertz, you’ll be able to jump in and offer some witty commentary about the effects of different frequencies on the human brain. Or maybe you’ll just go back to silently judging Nickelback fans. Either way, the Hertz has got your back.
