Frequency (in physics and engineering) is the measure number of complete cycles of some event per unit time. The event could be a revolution of a wheel, or oscillation of a tuning fork, reed, string, beam, etc. Or it could be movement of pressure waves like in air, or maybe the oscillation of water waves. It could also be electrical wave (like voltage at an outlet) or electromagnetic (like radio waves or light waves).

You need to have some way of determining the start and finish of a complete cycle (usually measured from a 'peak' [maximum] to another 'peak'). Then just measure the elapsed time for one complete cycle.

The frequency = 1 / (time period). Where time period is the time for one complete cycle.

How are wavelength frequencies calculated?

Wavelength frequencies are calculate by using a scientific formula. The formula is: f = c/lambda. The f equals the frequency, c is the speed of light and lambda is the wavelength.


How do you calculate absolute frequencies?

Absolute frequencies are calculated by first identifying intervals based on your data and then identifying the number of values within your data set that lie within these interval. Relative frequencies divide the absolute frequencues by the number of values in the set. It is a good practice to provide the absolute frequencies, perhaps in a bar chart of relative frequencies as a number above each bar.


Frequency and cumulative frequency are two types of what?

Frequency and cumulative frequency are two types of frequency distributions. These are frequency tables that show statistical data for different types of frequencies that include absolute, relative, and cumulative frequencies. There are mathematical formulas used to calculate these frequencies.

Why two frequencies are used in dtmf?

The tone frequencies, are selected such that harmonics and intermodulation products will not cause an unreliable signal. No frequency is a multiple of another, the difference between any two frequencies does not equal any of the frequencies, and the sum of any two frequencies does not equal any of the frequencies.
