How to Convert Kilohertz to Cycles per Second
To convert kilohertz to cycles per second (cps), multiply the number of kilohertz by 1,000. This is because 1 kilohertz is equal to 1,000 hertz, and 1 hertz is equal to 1 cycle per second.
Formula
Cycles per Second = Kilohertz × 1,000
or
cps = kHz × 1,000
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in kilohertz
- Multiply that number by 1,000
- The result is the equivalent frequency in cycles per second
Examples
- 1 kHz = 1 × 1,000 = 1,000 cps
- 5 kHz = 5 × 1,000 = 5,000 cps
- 10 kHz = 10 × 1,000 = 10,000 cps
