To find the time period of the vibration of a mosquito's wings, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between frequency and time period The frequency (f) of a vibration is defined as the number of vibrations per second. The time period (T) is the time taken to complete one vibration. The relationship between frequency and time period is given by the formula: \[ T = \frac{1}{f} \] ### Step 2: Identify the frequency From the question, we know that the mosquito vibrates its wings at an average rate of 500 vibrations per second. Therefore, the frequency (f) is: ...
