f = 1/2PI * sqrt(K/M), and another one, w = sqrt(K/M).
these two terms are called natural frequency of a vibrating system. Somehow until now i am still confuse about how they differ when a question is ask about 'what is the natural frequency of a beam,' for instance.

Thanks a lot for the answers..:)

the natural frequency tells us how many wave cycles are there in a second, for example, a 3 Hz frequency means that there are 3 complete wave cycles in one second time.
w (omega) is the angular frequency. a single cycle of wave covers a distance of 2 pi radians. thus w denotes how many radians are there in a wave in one second, for example, a wave having an angular frequency of 50 rad/s means that a wave covers 50 radians in one second.
i hope the above statement clarified the difference.
Edit: and also, x = 2 pi * natural frequency, just like the guy above said.

Hz (Hertz) is the SI (International System) unit of frequency. It is the internationally accepted unit for frequency.
