Answer:
(a) 1.16 s
(b)0.861 Hz
Explanation:
(a) Period : The period of a simple harmonic motion is the time in seconds, required for a object undergoing oscillation to complete one cycle.
From the question,
If 1550 cycles is completed in (30×60) seconds,
1 cycle is completed in x seconds
x = 30×60/1550
x = 1.16 s
Hence the period is 1.16 seconds.
(b) Frequency : This can be defined as the number of cycles that is completed in one seconds, by an oscillating body. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz).
Mathematically, Frequency is given as
F = 1/T ........................... Equation 1
Where F = frequency, T = period.
Given: T = 1.16 s.
Substitute into equation 1
F = 1/1.16
F = 0.862 Hz
Hence thee frequency = 0.862 Hz

'Universe' means 'Everything'. That is, all matter, all space, all time.
Answer:
857.5 m
2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
Explanation:
Time taken by the sound of the thunder to reach the student = 2.5 s
Speed of sound in air is 343 m/s
Speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s
Distance travelled by the sound = Time taken by the sound × Speed of sound in air
⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 2.5×343 = 857.5 m
⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 857.5 m
Time taken by light = Distance the light travelled / Speed of light

Time taken by light = 2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds
