In a sinusoidal wave, the minimum time required for a particular point to move from maximum displacement to zero displacement is $0.17\text{ s}$. The frequency of the wave is
  1. $1.47\text{ Hz}$
  2. $0.36\text{ Hz}$
  3. $0.73\text{ Hz}$
  4. $2.49\text{ Hz}$

Solution

Here, $\frac{T}{4} = 0.17\text{ s}$ $\therefore f = \frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{4 \times 0.17}\text{ Hz}$ The frequency of the wave, $f = 1.47\text{ Hz}$
