    Wave Period Calculation

    • Wave period (T) is the time it takes for one complete wave cycle.
    • It's measured in seconds (s).
    • Frequency (f) is the number of wave cycles per second.
    • It's measured in Hertz (Hz).
    • The formula to calculate wave period is: T = 1/f
    • If a wave has a frequency of 5 Hz, its period is 0.2 seconds.
