\[f=\frac{1}{T}\]
Variables
ffrequency (Hz)
Tperiod (s)
Description
What is this formula?
The Wave Frequency Relation connects frequency and period. Frequency represents the number of cycles per second, while the period is the time required for one complete cycle.
When to use it
Use this formula when converting between frequency and period in oscillations, vibrations, sound waves, and periodic phenomena.
Example
Given:
T = 0.02 s
Formula:
f = 1/T
Substitution:
f = 1/0.02
f = 50 Hz
Result:
f = 50 Hz
Applications
Wave analysis.
Electrical signals.
Mechanical vibrations.
Acoustics.
