Unit Description
Revolutions per Hour (rph)
Definition
Revolutions per hour (rph) is a unit of rotational frequency representing the number of complete rotations around a fixed axis in one hour. It's used for very slow rotational systems and astronomical observations.
History
RPH became useful for describing very slow rotational systems such as astronomical observations, large industrial equipment, and systems where rotational speeds are extremely low. It provided appropriate scaling for applications where RPM would result in very small decimal numbers.
Current Use
RPH is used for astronomical observations (planetary rotation), very slow industrial processes, large rotating equipment, and systems with extremely low rotational speeds. It's found in astronomical calculations and specifications for very slow rotating machinery.
Terahertz (THz)
Definition
A terahertz (THz) is a unit of frequency equal to one trillion hertz (10¹² Hz). It represents extremely high frequencies typically found in infrared radiation, molecular vibrations, and advanced telecommunications research.
History
The terahertz became important with the development of advanced spectroscopy and telecommunications research in the late 20th century. It was particularly crucial for describing frequencies in the 'terahertz gap' between microwave and infrared radiation, opening new fields in materials science and medical imaging.
Current Use
Terahertz frequencies are used in advanced spectroscopy, medical imaging, security scanning, materials research, and cutting-edge telecommunications. They're essential for terahertz imaging systems, molecular spectroscopy, and research into next-generation wireless communications.
