dcterms:description |
“The "cycle per second" is a once-common English name for the unit of frequency now known as the hertz (Hz). In this vocabulary, "cycle" is treated as a dimensionless counting unit (one complete oscillation), making 1 cycle/s = 1 Hz exactly. This is consistent with the SI definition of the hertz and with the extended dimension vector assignment of N=1 (count) rather than R=1 (angle) for unit:CYC. Whether a cycle is inherently rotational is debated: one cycle equals one revolution (2pi rad), and unit:REV-PER-SEC is the appropriate unit when the angular character is explicit (1 rev/s = 2pi rad/s, a unit of angular velocity). The choice here reflects the conventional physics usage in which frequency is expressed as a scalar count rate, not an angular rate. ” |
