Unit Description

Cycles per Minute (cpm)

Definition

Cycles per minute (cpm) is a unit of frequency representing the number of complete cycles of a periodic phenomenon occurring in one minute. It's used for moderate-frequency periodic processes and mechanical systems.

History

Cycles per minute developed for describing periodic processes that occur at moderate rates, particularly in mechanical systems, industrial processes, and biological applications where minute-based measurements were more practical than second-based measurements.

Current Use

CPM is used in industrial process control, mechanical systems, biological monitoring, and applications where periodic events occur at moderate rates. It's found in process equipment specifications, biological rhythm measurements, and industrial automation systems.

Kilohertz (kHz)

Definition

A kilohertz (kHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one thousand hertz (10³ Hz). It represents moderate frequencies commonly found in audio applications, low-frequency radio, and various electronic systems.

History

The kilohertz became important with the development of audio technology and early radio communications. It provided a convenient scale for describing audio frequencies and low-frequency radio waves, becoming essential in the development of broadcasting and audio equipment.

Current Use

Kilohertz is extensively used in audio engineering, AM radio broadcasting, audio equipment specifications, and low-frequency electronic applications. It's standard for describing audio frequency ranges, AM radio frequencies, and various audio processing equipment.
