Time Period (T) in seconds (s).

Explanation:

The amount of time required for one complete wave to pass a point is the time period.

Note that:

T= #1/f#

Here, f is the frequency of the wave in Hertz (Hz) or
per second (#s^-1#).

Here, frequency is the number of waves passing per unit time.

Also note that:

f= #1/T#
