The time it takes the block to complete one cycle is called the period. Usually, the period is denoted T and is measured in seconds. The frequency, denoted f, is the number of cycles that are completed per unit of time: f=1/T. In SI units, f is measured in inverse seconds, or hertz (Hz).

If the period is doubled, the frequency is?

A. unchanged. B. doubled. C. halved.

option (c)

Explanation:

The time taken by the pendulum to complete one oscillation is called time period.

The number of oscillations completed in one second is called frequency.

The frequency is the reciprocal of time period.

T = 1 / f

If the period is doubled, then the frequency is halved.
