Answer:
T = 0.009 s
Explanation:
It is given that, an OC makes about 112 full wing swings in one second. We need to find the oscillation period of the wasp's wings.
No of oscillations per unit time is called the frequency of an object. It means 112 is the frequency of wing swings. Let T is the oscillation period. It is equal to the reciprocal of frequency as follows :
[tex]T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{112}\\\\= 0.00892\ s\\\\=0.009\ s[/tex]
Hence, the oscillation period is 0.009 s.
