Record number: 7, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The number of horizontal scanning lines in a field is one-half the total 525 lines for a complete frame, since one field contains every other line. This yields 262 1/2 horizontal lines for each vertical field. Since the time for a field is 1/60 s and since it contains 262 1/2 lines, the number of lines per second is 262 1/2 lines, the number of lines per second is 262 1/2 X 60 = 15,750. 3, record 7, English, - horizontal%20repetition%20rate

Le nombre de lignes de balayage horizontal d'une trame est égal à la moitié du nombre de lignes, 525, d'une image, puisqu'une trame comporte les lignes paires ou impaires. On a donc 262,5 lignes horizontales par trame verticale. Comme la période d'une trame qui contient 262,5 lignes est de 1/60 s, le nombre de lignes par seconde est de : 262,5 X 60 = 15 750. 1, record 7, French, - fr%C3%A9quence%20de%20balayage%20horizontal

The field rate of 60 Hz is the vertical scanning frequency. This is the rate at which the electron beam completes its cycles of vertical motion, from top to bottom and back to top again. Therefore, vertical deflection circuits for either the camera tube or the picture tube operate at 60 Hz. The time of each vertical scanning cycle for one field is 1/60 s. 1, record 8, English, - vertical%20scanning%20frequency

La fréquence de balayage vertical est égale à la fréquence de trame, soit 60 Hz. C'est la fréquence à laquelle le faisceau électronique accomplit ses cycles de mouvement vertical de haut en bas et de retour en haut. Par conséquent, les circuits de déviation verticale du tube analyseur et du tube image fonctionnent à la fréquence de 60 Hz. La période de chaque cycle de balayage vertical d'une trame est de 1/60 s. 1, record 8, French, - fr%C3%A9quence%20de%20balayage%20vertical
