Understanding the Relationship
* Frequency (f): The number of cycles of oscillation per second. Measured in Hertz (Hz).
* Period (T): The time it takes for one complete cycle of oscillation. Measured in seconds (s).
The Formula
The relationship between frequency and period is:
* T = 1 / f
Calculation
1. Given: f = 1.2 Hz
2. Substitute: T = 1 / 1.2 Hz
3. Calculate: T ≈ 0.83 seconds
Answer
The period of the structure is approximately 0.83 seconds.
