If you quintuple the frequency of a vibrating object, by what factor will its period change?

Thanks!If you quintuple the frequency of a vibrating object, by what factor will its period change?
Quintuple is increase 5 fold?





Then the period is decreased 5 fold - it becomes 1/5 th of what it was.If you quintuple the frequency of a vibrating object, by what factor will its period change?
Period = 1 / Frequency


So if frequence is five times as much, Period will change by 1/5
Freq is inversely proportional to wavelength.





c = wave * freq
