Mechanical oscillation refers to the movement of a subject repeatedly in a particular direction. This is known as the equilibrium position.

Thus, we can say that we have an oscillation that is periodic. It is an oscillation that sees the object’s state continues to repeat over a specified duration of time.

Frequency refers to the number of times that a phenomenon occurs per unit of time.

The symbol is the letter f. The frequency unit is Hz. 1Hz = 1/1.

The oscillation period is the duration the object’s motion to go through one oscillation. Symbol: T.

Relationship between frequency and time:

The period is inverted with the frequency of oscillation. We can calculate the period by using frequency, and reverse. T = 1 / f, f = 1 / T
