Kilohertz
means "thousand hertz." This is a unit of frequency that is equal to
one thousand cycles per second. Hertz is the SI unit of frequency and is used
to measure the number of cycles of a periodic wave that occur in one second.
Kilohertz is commonly used to express the frequency of sound waves, radio
waves, and other types of electromagnetic radiation. For example, the frequency
of a typical AM radio station is around 1 kHz to 0.5 MHz, while the frequency
of a typical FM radio station is around 88 MHz to 108 MHz. In general, the
higher the frequency of a wave, the shorter its wavelength and the more energy
it carries.
