Period is multiplied by #4#.

Explanation:

Frequency and period are inversely proportional.

Mathematically, this is described as #f = frac(1)("T")#.

So, whatever is done to the frequency, the inverse will happen to the period.

In this case, the frequeuncy is quartered:

#Rightarrow frac(1)(4) cdot f = frac(1)(4) cdot frac(1)("T")#

#Rightarrow frac(f)(4) = frac(1)(4 " T")#

Solving for #4# #"T"#:

#therefore 4# #"T"# #= frac(4)(f)#

Therefore, the period is quadruple when the frequency is quartered.
