Question

How are frequency and period related to each other

Answer 1

For a wave, the speed is the distance traveled by a given point on the wave
such as a crest in a given period of time. So while wave frequency refers to the number of cycles occurring per second, wave speed refers to the meters traveled per second.

Answer 2

While wave frequency talks about the number of cycles occurring per second or period of time, wave speed refers to the meters traveled per second.
