For example, the third harmonic of a 2-kHz sine wave is a sine wave
of 6 kHz.

Time Domain
Most of the signals and waveforms that we discuss and analyze are
expressed in the time domain. That is, they are variations of voltage,
current, or power with respect to time.
Their mathematical expressions contain the variable time t, indicating
that they are a time-variant quantity.
You are already familiar with the oscilloscope, which displays the
volt-age amplitude of a signal with respect to a horizontal time axis.

Time Domain Versus Frequency Domain (2)
Frequency Domain
Frequency domain is a term used to describe the domain for analysis of
signals with respect to frequency, rather than time.
Frequency-domain graph shows how much of the signal lies within
each given frequency band over a range of frequencies
The test instrument for producing a frequency-domain display is the
spectrum analyzer. the horizontal sweep axis is calibrated in hertz and
the vertical axis is calibrated in volts or power units or decibels.
