Answer:

Option B. 0.016 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained.

Period (T) = 60 s

Frequency (f) =?

Frequency and period are related according to the following equation:

Frequency = 1 / period

f = 1/T

With the above formula, we can obtain the frequency of the ride as follow:

Period (T) = 60 s

Frequency (f) =?

f = 1/T

f = 1/60

f = 0.016 Hz

Thus, the rider's frequency is 0.016 Hz
