whether you are talking about waves on the beach or waves of light or sound waves. the time it takes for one wave to oscillate completely is the period of the wave. if, however you would like to know how many oscillations each wave completes per second, then you would be looking for frequencys

False. The closer you are to the epicentre, the smaller the time difference between the arrival of P and S-waves.
As P-waves travel at a higher velocity than S-waves they arrive at a seismometer station before the S-waves. The difference between their arrival time can be used to calculate the distance from the seismometer station to the epicentre.

The distance between a seismological recording station and the earthquake source is determined from the arrival time of P and the S waves. P waves are faster than S waves and surface waves.

the time between the two R waves in ECG
The length of time between pulses is the "pulse repetition rate". The length of time between consecutive waves is the "period". It's the reciprocal of the frequency.
