Given that any waveform can be produced out of "sine waves", we can call those events call composite sine, falling back to Hertz.
The said request most likely have originated as some sines as well, think of your phone for instance.
Seriously, though, using Hertz would be confusing to a high degree.
- TylerE 3y agoThe sine wave thing is technically true, but if you try it in practice, as I did extensively in a college acoustics course, you’ll find that making even a decent approximation of a square or a saw wave requires sine waves at many multiples of the upper threshold of human hearing. You need those insanely high overtones to produce sharp “corners” in the wave form.
- xxs 3y agoOf course, making square wave oscillators is very difficult at any frequency - there is always some rounding around the 'corners'
