A nurse counts 76 heartbeats in one minute. What are the period and frequency of the heart’s oscillations?
The period and frequency of the heart’s oscillations.
Answer to Problem 26A
Period of the heart’s oscillations is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Count of heartbeats is
Formula used:
Frequency is equal to the reciprocal of the period of oscillations.
Calculation:
The frequency of the heart’s oscillations is the number of heartbeats in one minute that is
Period of the oscillations is,
Conclusion:
Thus, period of the heart’s oscillations is
