Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the formula for calculating the frequency of a wave?
  • Step 1: Understand what frequency means. Frequency (f) is how many times a wave repeats in one second.
  • Step 2: Learn about the period (T) of a wave. The period is the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a point.
  • Step 3: Know the relationship between frequency and period. The frequency is the inverse of the period.
  • Step 4: Use the formula f = 1/T. This means to find the frequency, you divide 1 by the period.
