Solution

Frequency:

  1. It is the number of oscillations/vibrations per second.
  2. It is measured in Hertz (Hz).

Explanation:

  1. If the frequency of a sound is 100Hz, it means the source of the sound completes 100 vibrations in one second.
  2. So, in one minute, the number of vibrations will be: 100×60=6000/minute

Hence the number of vibrations in one minute will be 6000 times.
