The period of a mechanical wave is 12 seconds. What is the frequency of the wave?


12 waves/second

4.0 waves/second

0.083 waves/second

depends on the speed of the wave

Data:
T (period) = 12 s
f (frequency) = ? (waves/second)

Formula:
\(f = \frac{1}{T}\)

Solving:
\(f = \frac{1}{T}\)
\(f = \frac{1}{12}\)
\(\boxed{\boxed{f \approx 0.083\:waves/second}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark\)
