Frequency, Heart Rate refers to the number of times the heart beats per minute. It is a vital indicator of cardiovascular health and overall fitness level.

Common units of measurement for Heart Rate include beats per minute (bpm) and pulses per minute (ppm).

  • Monitoring heart rate during exercise helps to ensure safe and effective workouts
  • Abnormal heart rates can be a sign of various health conditions
  • Tracking heart rate over time can provide valuable insights into heart health and fitness progress
  (frequency base)  1/s

Frequency, Heart Rate measures how many times the heart beats per minute, indicating overall cardiovascular health and fitness level.

  beats per hour  bph

1 bph = 0.016666666666666666 1/s; "BPH" stands for beats per hour, a unit used to measure frequency or heart rate. It represents the number of beats occurring in one hour.

  beats per minute  bpm

1 bpm = 1 1/s; "BPM" stands for beats per minute, a unit used to measure the frequency of events, particularly heart rate. It signifies the number of beats in a one-minute time frame.

  becquerel  bq

1 Bq = 1.0 1/s; The "bq" or becquerel is a unit of frequency measuring radioactive decay. It represents one decay per second. It is commonly used in nuclear physics and radiochemistry.

  caesium hyperfine frequency  hfcs

1 hfCs = 9192631770.0 1/s (#1 of 7 SI Defining constants); "hfcs" is a unit of frequency representing the caesium hyperfine frequency, commonly used in measuring heart rate. It is a defining constant in the SI system.

  ci  ci

1 ci = 37000000000 1/s; The "ci" unit is used to measure frequency or heart rate.

  hertz  hz

1 Hz = 1.0 1/s; "Hertz" (Hz) is a unit of frequency measuring cycles per second. Commonly used to describe the frequency of waves, it is a key unit in physics and engineering.
