The number of times the screen is refreshed per second is called vertical frequency or refresh rate

Horizontal Frequency: The time it takes to display one horizontal line is called the horizontal cycle.
yy
The number of horizontal lines displayed in one second can be calculated by dividing one by the hori-
zontal cycle. This is called horizontal frequency and is represented by kHz.
