What Does K Stand For?
K stands for Kilocycle
Kilocycle (K) is a unit of frequency equivalent to one thousand cycles per second, commonly used in the context of audio and radio frequencies. It is an older term that has largely been replaced by the hertz (Hz) in contemporary scientific and engineering applications, with 1 kilocycle equating to 1,000 hertz. The kilocycle unit is relevant in fields such as telecommunications, acoustics, and electronics, where understanding frequency is essential for signal processing and system design.
