I want to convert 100 samples/second to hertz...can anyone help me ?

Question

i want to know difference between samples per second and cycles per second.

Answer 1

100 samples/sec = 100 cycles/sec (obselete term) = 100 Hz

anything per second that is cyclic has units of Hz.

Answer 2

- One hertz simply means one cycle per second (typically that which is being counted is a complete cycle).

- Sample, means a piece or limited quantity of material, usually from a larger amount, taken or provided for testing, analysis, inspection, demonstration, or trial use.

- Cycle in this case means complete process of preparing the sample.

Therefore:

samples per second = cycles per second = Hertz.

Answer: 100 samples per second = 100Hz.

Answer 3

Are you about the Nyquist theorem? 50 Hz is the highest frequency you can represent at 100 samples per second (alternating high and low samples).
