Answer:

the frequency of the hummingbird is 80 Hz.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

number of times the hummingbird beats its wings, n = 4,800 times

the duration of this motion, t = 1 minute

The frequency of the hummingbird wings is calculated as follows;


frequency = (number \ of \ times)/(time \ taken) \\\\frequency= (4,800)/(1 \min \ * \ 60s) = 80 \ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the hummingbird is 80 Hz.
