Yes.
The term for the time it takes each wave crest to pass a certain point is called the "period" of the wave. It is typically measured in seconds and is the inverse of the frequency of the wave.
The inverse of period is frequency. Period refers to the time it takes to complete one cycle of a repeating event, while frequency represents the number of cycles that occur in a unit of time.
frequency
o fricken idea.... i have nk
I think it's frequency.
Period = 1 / frequency
It is the amount of time taken by a wave to go from one crest to the next crest, or one trough to the next.
They are inverses. Seconds and Hertz are inverse units.
The period of a wave is the time it takes for one complete cycle to occur, while the frequency is the number of cycles that occur in one second. The relationship between period and frequency is inverse, meaning that as the period increases, the frequency decreases, and vice versa. This can be mathematically demonstrated by the equation: frequency = 1/period.
Frequency (f) is the inverse of period (T), so the equation relating the two is: f = 1/T
The period of a 4Hz wave is 0.25 seconds. This can be calculated by taking the inverse of the frequency (1/4 = 0.25).
Period and frequency are inverse to each other, as period increases frequency decreases. So, to answer this question as the period of the wave decreases its frequency must increase.
