104 - Wave Period and Frequency
In this video Paul Andersen explains how the period is the time between wave and the frequency is the number of waves per second. Period is measured in seconds and frequency is measured in Hertz. Wave period and wave frequency are reciprocals of one another. After watching this video you will be able to determine the period (and therefore the frequency) using a position vs. time graph of a wave.
