How to Convert Hertz to Seconds
To convert hertz to seconds, you can use the following formula.
Conversion formula
Seconds (s)=1÷Hertz (Hz)
Example:
- Input: 10 Hz
- Calculation: 1 ÷ 10 = 0.1
- Output: 0.1 s
This means a waveform repeating 10 times per second has a period of 0.1 seconds per cycle.
Our converter handles decimal values and scientific notation, making it ideal for technical and scientific work.

FAQs
Q1: What is Hertz?
A: Hertz (Hz) measures frequency — the number of cycles per second in a repeating signal.
Q2: What does seconds (s) represent here?
A: Seconds (s) represent the period, the time it takes to complete one cycle of the waveform.
Q3: Can I enter very small or large numbers?
A: Yes! The converter supports decimals and scientific notation, like 0.005 Hz or 1.5e6 Hz.
Q4: Can this tool help with music or BPM calculations?
A: Yes. By converting frequency to period, you can calculate timing for beats, rhythms, or cycles in music and engineering projects.
Q5: Is this tool free and mobile-friendly?
A: Absolutely. You can use it instantly on desktop, tablet, or mobile without downloading anything.
