Question

A periodic wave has a frequency of 3.2 Hz. What is the wave period?answer in:____ s

Answer 1

Given:

Frequency of wave, f = 3.2 Hz.

Let's find the period of the wave.

To find the wave period, apply the formula:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

Where:

T is the period in seconds

f is the frequency hertz.

Thus, we have:

$\begin{gathered} T=\frac{1}{3.2} \\ \\ T=0.3125\text{ s} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the wave period is 0.3125 seconds.

ANSWER:

0.3125 s
