Frequency(f) = 1/Period(T)
f = 1/5 = 0.2 Hz

Answer:0.2Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

Frequency is defined as the number of cycles completed by a wave in one seconds. Frequency is therefore measured in cycles/second or Hertz(Hz).

Period (T) is the time taken to complete an oscillation. The relationship between both is that frequency (F) is the reciprocal of the period. Mathematically, F = 1/T

From the question, Period (T) is 5seconds

Frequency = 1/5

F = 0.2Hz
