AI overview

A hertz is a unit that measures how often something repeats per second—for example, a sound wave vibrating 440 times per second has a frequency of 440 hertz. It matters because it's the standard way scientists and engineers worldwide describe the speed of any recurring event, from the pitch of musical notes to the signals in wireless networks.
