a standard term for the measurement of frequencies, i.e. the A above middle C vibrates at a frequency of 440 cycles per second.

The number of oscillations that occur in the time frame on one second. (See Frequency). Low frequency sounds have fewer and longer oscillations.

This term describes the frequency of alternating current. Frequency is more properly described using the term Hertz (Hz) which is synonymous with cycles per second.
