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.
Microhertz (µHz)
Definition
A microhertz (µHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one millionth of a hertz (10⁻⁶ Hz). It represents extremely low frequencies found in astronomical phenomena, very slow biological processes, and precision scientific measurements.
History
The microhertz became important with advanced astronomical observations and precision scientific measurements. It was particularly crucial for describing stellar oscillations, planetary motions, and other astronomical phenomena with very long periods.
Current Use
Microhertz is used in astronomy for stellar seismology, precision timing systems, long-term biological studies, and advanced scientific research. It's essential for measuring astronomical oscillations, very slow biological rhythms, and ultra-precision frequency standards.
