Electrical Engineering XYZ MCQ
Which of the following quantities has SI unit as Hertz:
- Frequency
- Charge
- Power
- Force
Correct answer: 1. Frequency
Explanation: Frequency is the SI unit of hertz.
- Frequency:
- SI Unit: Hertz (Hz)
- Definition: Frequency is the number of cycles or oscillations of a wave per unit of time. The unit Hertz (Hz) represents one cycle per second.
- Charge:
- SI Unit: Coulomb (C)
- Definition: Charge is a measure of the electric charge of a particle or object. The unit Coulomb represents the amount of electric charge transported by a current of one ampere in one second.
- Power:
- SI Unit: Watt (W)
- Definition: Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred or converted. The unit Watt represents one joule of energy per second.
- Force:
- SI Unit: Newton (N)
- Definition: Force is the interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. The unit Newton represents the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.
In summary, the SI unit Hertz is associated with the quantity of frequency, which measures the number of cycles per unit of time.
