if a seismic wave has a period of 0.0202s, find the frequency of the wave.

Answer:
49.5 Hz.
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Period (T) = 0.0202 s
Frequency (f) =?
The frequency and period of a wave are related according to the following equation:
Frequency (f) = 1 / period (T)
f = 1/T
With the above formula, we can obtain the frequency of the wave as follow:
Period (T) = 0.0202 s
Frequency (f) =?
f = 1/T
f = 1/0.0202
f = 49.5 Hz
Therefore the frequency of the wave is 49.5 Hz.
