Systems with a stable equilibrium point often exhibit Oscillations

B is a stable equilibrium point because1)When the ball is pushed to the right from B the force of gravity acts to pull it back to B2)And when the ball is pushed to the left from B the force of gravity acts to pull it back to B

The Period of an Oscillating system is the time it takes to complete one full cycle

The period is the time it takes to go from A over to C and back to A.

Page 8: Waves

The frequency of an Oscillating system is the number of cycle per second and is just

1/Period

The frequency unit of cycles per sec (1/s) has the special name Hertz (Hz)

Since the frequency of an Oscillating system is the number of cycle per second, the period

(number of seconds per cycle) is:

A seismic signal has a frequency of 0.2 Hz. What is the period of this signal?
