[Television and video screen] The number of horizontal lines per second (15,750 hertz in the United States). 1, record 3, English, - horizontal%20repetition%20rate
Record number: 3, 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 3, 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 3, French, - fr%C3%A9quence%20de%20balayage%20horizontal
