University of Auckland/Department of Physics/Physics 102/Frequency

= Relationship to the Period =

The frequency is related to the period by:

$$f = \frac{1}{T}$$

Units
1/s or Hertz, Hz

Very useful formaula, good use of units and easy to access. crav005

FYI
Here's a link thats like an online interactive textbook. Will answer any questions you might have..: http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/phys/Class/waves/wavestoc.html (dhic014)

Wave frequency outline and quiz
For an introduction to the simple concepts of frequency and period of waves, see this resource from Illinois. There is also a quiz with '90s style buttons which show you the answers. Internet is great, huh? Woohoo! There's also another very useful website here too(ahud010)

This is a very helpful link. It was very easy to understand and didnt stray off the topic. This link should be kept. klit014
