Question 462202: if the frequency of a wave is 10 GHz,find the period

The frequency is 10 gigahertz, which is 10^9 times per second. The period is the amount of time required for one full cycle or wavelength to pass, which is 10^(-9) seconds.

Note that the frequency and the period, when using consistent units, multiply to 1.
