Hertz are an SI unit, measuring frequency: 1 hertz = 1 cycle per second. 1 megahertz is 1 million cycles per second.
Mhz don't *do* anything, in the same way that feet an inches don't do anything. It's just a unit of measurement.

well theres 1000 mhz in a ghz and that is your processor speed which is basically computer speed however your computer can only go as fast as the amount of ram you have so if you had for instance a 3ghz processor and 512 mb of ram the computer would be pretty much the same as a computer with 2.0 ghz processor and 512 mb of ram

One million periods per second.
One hertz simply means "one cycle per second"; 100 Hz means "one hundred cycles per second", and so on. The unit may be applied to any periodic event – for example, a clock might be said to tick at 1 Hz, or a human heart might be said to beat at 1.2 Hz. Frequency of aperiodic events, such as radioactive decays, is expressed in becquerels.
To avoid confusion, periodically varying angles are typically not expressed in hertz, but rather in an appropriate angular unit such as radians per second. A disc rotating at 1 revolution per minute (RPM) can thus be said to be rotating at 0.105 rad/s or 0.017 Hz, where the latter reflects the number of complete revolutions per second.

Megahertz means One million hertz! Orginally Hertz was called cycles.
Megahertz means one million cycles per second!
1,000,000Hertz per second 1,000,000cycles per second
Up until the late 1960's it was called cycles instead of Hertz but was changed to honor a pioneer in electricty and electronics to Hertz whose last name was Hertz
Hertz or cycles has to do with Alternating current electricty like you use every day in your home but that is only sixty hertz or sixty cycles per second!
One Hertz or one cycle is when electrical current starts at a zero voltage base line: Increases to peak or maximum positive voltage 90 degrees! then decreases to zero votls 180 degrees then increases in the negative direction to a maximum negative voltage 270 degrees! Then increases back to zero voltage at 360 degrees! It then starts all over for the next cycle.
Without getting too technical higher frequencies such as in the million hertz or million cycle ranges are use in communications such as the signals sent to your radios and T.V.s they are what are commonly referred to as radio waves and you will and also hear them referred to as radio frequencies or RF signals!
Or radio waves.
