hectohertz to kilohertz
Convert hectohertz (hHz) to kilohertz (kHz). Use an editable frequency converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 hHz = 0.1 kHz
Conversion formula
One hectohertz equals 0.1 kilohertz. Multiply your value in hectohertz by this factor to get kilohertz. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 hectohertz:5 × 0.1 = 0.5 kHz

About these measurements
Frequency measures cycles per second.
The base reference used here is the hertz. One hectohertz is 100 base units; one kilohertz is 1,000 base units.
Important distinctions
Frequency is the reciprocal of period, not angular velocity.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert hHz to kHz?
Multiply the quantity in hHz by 0.1. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the kilohertz to hectohertz converter.
