What is the relationship between frequency and period?

Answer
A
frequency is the same as the period
B
frequency is the reciprocal of the period
C
frequency is the reciprocal of the vibration
D
there is no relationship

Explanation

Frequency is the number of vibrations per second, while period is the time taken for one vibration. They are reciprocals: f = 1/T, where f is frequency and T is period. Therefore, the correct choice is “frequency is the reciprocal of the period.”
