Frequency of oscillation is defined as the number of oscillation of a vibrating body per second.It is given by
![\sf{Frequency=} \\ (Number ~of~ oscillation)/(Time)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/middle-school/1sigp7a4r8zxgy0indo507614c7tbt7uuq.png)
![=(40)/(4)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/middle-school/snpj11238ivu4tamvx11hf2hs3kpcyq1dr.png)

The time period
The time required to complete one oscillation is known as Time period.
It is given by the inverse of the frequency.
![\sf{Time~Period=} \\ (1)/(Frequency ~of~ oscillation)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/middle-school/8lbntjiynp1rms1x9pl35cjce8pfyaiysn.png)

________________
Therefore the frequency is
![\sf{=10 Hz}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/middle-school/urzo5gx6k0bvtzw6kz7in5d2k7up99hcyl.png)
And the time period is
![\sf{=0.1 s}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/middle-school/l369piw2w3qnzswejw44zytv8dtp1yqjih.png)
