Answer:


F = 0.3\ Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the graph

Required

Determine the frequency

Frequency (F) is calculated as:


F = (1)/(T)

Where

T = Time to complete a period

From the attachment, the wave complete a cycle or period in 3 seconds..

So:


F = (1)/(3s)


F = 0.333\ Hz


F = 0.3\ Hz --- Approximated
