An oscillating system has a frequency of 20 Hz. What is its time period
- A.
  
  20s
- B.
  
  1s
- C.
  
  0.5s
- D.
  
  0.1s
- E.
  
  0.05s
- F.
  
  0.02
Correct Answer
E. 0.05s

Explanation
The time period of an oscillating system is the time taken for one complete cycle of oscillation. In this case, the system has a frequency of 20 Hz, which means it completes 20 cycles in one second. To find the time period, we divide 1 second by the frequency. Therefore, the time period is 1/20 seconds, which is equal to 0.05 seconds.
