Answer:
0.125Hz
Explanation:
The relationship between period and frequency is given by
[tex]f=\frac{1}{T}...............(1)[/tex]
where f is the period and T is the frequency.
Given that T = 8.00s
[tex]f=\frac{1}{8}\\f=0.125Hz[/tex]
The period of a swinging object is the time it takes to make one complete oscillation, it is measured in seconds (s) while the frequency is the number of complete oscillations made per unit time and it is measured in Hertz (Hz). Period and frequency are inverse of each other.
Answer:
0.125 Hz
Explanation:
Period : This can be defined as the time taken for a body to complete one oscillation. The S.I unit of period is Seconds (s)
Frequency: This can be defined as the number of oscillation completed by a body in one seconds. the S.I unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz).
From the question,
Frequency of the ship = (period of the ship)⁻¹
F = T⁻¹ ..................... Equation 1
Given: T = 8.00 s
Substitute into equation 1
F = 8⁻¹
F = 1/8
F = 0.125 Hz.
Hence the frequency of the swinging ship = 0.125 Hz
