Answer:

The period is 0.54 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Period (T)

Is the time required for a rotating object to make one complete revolution around a circular path.

If it takes a time t to complete n revolutions, the period is:


\displaystyle T=(t)/(n)

The rotating object spins n=24 times in t=13 seconds, thus its period is:


\displaystyle T=(13)/(24)

T = 0.54 sec

The period is 0.54 seconds
