Double the original period ==> 1/2 of the original frequency

How does the frequency of a wave change when the period of a wave is doubled?
The frequency is the reciprocal of the period. If the period is doubled, the frequency will change by a factor of 1/2.
How are frequency and wave period related?
Period = 1 / frequency
What happens to the period of a wave when the frequency decreases?
The period and frequency of a wave are inversely related, i.e. the period is the time it takes for wave to go through a cycle, and the frequency is the number of cycles in a certain time period. For example, a wave with a period of 0.5 seconds would have a frequency of 2 per second. Since these properties are the inverse of each other, than they will be opposite when changing. If the period decreases (i.e. gets shorter, faster) than the frequency increases. Or vice versa.
What will the frequency of a wave do if the period of the wave increases?
If the period increases, the frequency decreases.The product of (frequency) times (period) is always ' 1 '.
How do wave frequency and period of a wave relate?
Wave frequency f, and period of wave T are inverses, related by fT=1.
As the frequency of a set of waves increases do the period of each wave decreases?
The frequency and period of a wave are inversely proportional. Therefore, as the frequency increases, the period decreases. frequency = 1/period period = 1/frequency
Is a period of a wave inversely related to the frequency of the wave?
yes as, period time = 1/ frequency
How are frequency wave period related?
Period = 1 / frequency
How frequency and wave period related?
Period = 1 / frequency
Formula for frequency of a wave?
frequency = (wave speed)/(wavelength) frequency = 1/(period)
How does the the frequency of a reflected wave compared to the frequency of a incoming wave?
It is double of the incoming wave.
What is the relation between frequency and period of wave?
Frequency = 1 / period
