Header: Frequency

Context: The total count of cycles generated within a time of second by a vibrating system is
termed as frequency. This frequency is a depending parameter upon the time period of the
cycle. This is calculated by observing the number of crests formed while passing a steady
point.

__Given Data__

*The time of observation is: t  4 s

*The frequency of the wave is: f  2 Hz

*The time period of the wave is: T  2 f

\\

The time period is twice the frequency. Time taken by a wave to complete a cycle is:
