What does microhertz measure?

Microhertz measures extremely low-frequency oscillations, often used in geophysical and astrophysical contexts to quantify long-period signals.

What is terahertz used for?

Terahertz represents very high-frequency oscillations commonly used in electromagnetic radiation contexts such as spectroscopy, imaging, and wireless communication research.

Why are values so small when converting from microhertz to terahertz?

Because one microhertz equals 10⁻¹⁸ terahertz, the conversion drastically reduces the number’s magnitude, resulting in extremely small figures requiring scientific notation.
