The period of a wave is the amount of time needed for a wave to pass a point. Use the formula to calculate the period of a wave that has a frequency of 0.10 Hz and a wavelength of 14 cm. Formula: f=1/T
We can rearrange the formula to solve for the period, T:
f = 1/T
T = 1/f
Substituting the given values:
T = 1/0.10 Hz
T = 10 seconds
Therefore, the period of the wave is 10 seconds.
