calculate the period of a wave whose frequency is 5 Hz and whose wavelength is 1 cm give your answer in decimal form

Respuesta :

Period T = 1/f,        where f = frequency = 5 Hz

T =  1/5 = 0.20 s

Period = 0.20 seconds.

The period is the reciprocal of frequency.

         Period = 1 / (frequency)  =  1 / 5 per sec = 0.2 second.

The wavelength doesn't matter.
