Question
What is the time-period of a tuning fork whose frequency is 200 Hz?
Solution
We have to find the time period of oscillation.
Given: Frequency f = 200 Hz
We know the relation between frequency and time period `T = 1/f` ,
where f is the frequency and T the time period.
So,
T = `1/200` s
= `5 xx 10^-3` s
