How to Convert Kilohertz to Milliseconds

Frequency and period are inversely related. The formula is: T = 1 / f, where T is the period and f is the frequency.

Conversion Steps

  • The formula is: Period = 1 / Frequency
  • For example, to convert 20 kHz to ms:
  1. Convert to hertz: 20 kHz = 20 × 1000 = 20000 Hz
  2. Apply formula: T = 1 / 20000 Hz = 5.0e-5 seconds
  3. Convert to milliseconds: 5.0e-5 s / 0.001 = 20 ms

Reverse Conversion

To convert milliseconds back to kilohertz, use f = 1 / T:

  • 20 ms → f = 1 / 5.0e-5 s = 20000 Hz → 20 kHz
