Harmonic Motion KEY - Northern Highlands

6.
What is the mathematical relationship between frequency and period for a harmonic
motion system?

7.
The frequency and period are inversely related. As the frequency increases, the
period decreases.
If the frequency of harmonic motion is doubled, what happens to the period?

If the frequency is doubled, the period is halved.
