You would have to know the medium and the type of wave.
For example a sound wave with a period of 10 seconds would be well down in the infrasonic. In sound, a 1kHz wave has a wavelength of ~1 ft. A 1 Hz wave would have a wavelength of ~1000 ft. A 0.1Hz wave has a wavelength of ~10 000ft.
BUT, if it were a compression wave in an earthquake, one would be dealing with swampy ground.
A wave at sea in deep water (mid Pacific or mid Atlantic) could have such a period. An e-m wave of 0.1Hz would have a wavelength well towards our Sun.
And not all media have a uniform wave velocity. e-m waves at very low frequencies travel much slower than the common ones - at least around the earth. And you know that all colours of light do not travel at equal speeds in glass.

Period = 1/FrequencySo if we set Frequency = x THEN:10 = 1/x10x = 1x = 1/10IF Period of a Wave is 10 Seconds THEN The Frequency =1/10 or .10
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) Period = 1 / (frequency) = (wavelength) / (speed) = (0.01 meter) / (50 mi/sec x 1609.344 meters/mi) = 0.1243 microsecond (rounded)
10 Hz

0.1 seconds
The speed of the wave can be calculated using the formula: speed = wavelength / period. In this case, the speed of the wave is 10 meters / 20 seconds = 0.5 meters per second.
The speed of the wave can be calculated using the formula: speed = wavelength / period. In this case, the wavelength is 10 meters and the period is 2.0 seconds. Therefore, the speed of the waves is 5 m/s.
The period of a wave can be calculated using the equation Period = Wavelength / Wave Speed. Plugging in the values, we get Period = 10 mm / 50 m/s = 0.2 milliseconds.
Period = 1/FrequencySo if we set Frequency = x THEN:10 = 1/x10x = 1x = 1/10IF Period of a Wave is 10 Seconds THEN The Frequency =1/10 or .10
A wave frequency of 10 Hertz corresponds to a period of 0.1 seconds. The period is the reciprocal of the frequency, so in this case, 1/10 = 0.1 seconds.
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) Period = 1 / (frequency) = (wavelength) / (speed) = (0.01 meter) / (50 mi/sec x 1609.344 meters/mi) = 0.1243 microsecond (rounded)
10 Hz
Celerity speed of a deep water wave is 16.6 meters per sec. with a wavelength of 166 meters.
Oh, dude, you're hitting me with some physics here. So, 1 us is 1 microsecond, which is like 1 millionth of a second. So, the wave's period in seconds would be 0.000001 seconds. Cool, right?
ok
0.1 seconds
The period of a 10Hz wave is 0.1 seconds. Period is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to occur. In this case, for a 10Hz wave, one cycle occurs every 0.1 seconds.
