The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the <span>Third law that states:
</span><span>When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
</span>
So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is <span>the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:

The period is 1/5 second, and the frequency is 5 Hz.
Explanation:
Let's start by reviewing some definitions about waves:
- The period of a wave is the time taken for the wave to make one complete cycle. It is indicated with T and it is measured in seconds (s)
- The frequency of a wave is the number of complete cycles made by the wave in one second. It is indicated with f and it is measured in Hertz (Hz). It is equal to the reciprocal of the period:
where f is the frequency and T is the period.
In this problem, we have a wave that passes a given point five time per second. This means that the number of oscillations per second is five, and so its frequency is:
It follows than the period of the wave is:
Therefore, the correct statement is
The period is 1/5 second, and the frequency is 5 Hz.
