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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total vibrations = 500
Time taken =1 second
Time taken to complete one vibration = `(1)/(500)=0.002` seconds.
So, time period = 0.002 seconds.
