Solution

The correct option is B

0.1 Hz




In the given displacement-time graph, it shows the variation of displacement of a particle of the medium with time at a given position, when a wave propagates through the medium.

Here, the amplitude (a) is 4 cm and its time period (T) is 10 s.
We know frequency, F=1T

So the frequency, F= 110 = 0.1 Hz
