Relationship between fundamental frequency and harmonic in harmonic series?

In: Electronics Engineering, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Numerical Series Expansion [Edit categories]

Answer:

A harmonic frequency is a multiple of the fundamental. If the frequency is 60Hz, then the 2nd harmonic is (2 * 60) 120 Hz, the third is (3 * 60) 180 Hz, etc.
