The sound from a mosquito is produced when it vibrates its wings at an average rate of 500 vibrations per second. What is the time period of the vibration?

Solution

The time period is the time required to complete one oscillation. Time period is the inverse of the frequency. Time Period= 1/Frequency of oscillation.
$= \frac{1}{500} = 0.002 s e c$ .
