Frequency is defined as the number of repetitions made in one second.
In case of pendulum the repetition is called oscillation.
In case of a tuning fork, the repetition is known to be vibration.
In case of a wheel, the same repetition is said to be rotation.
In case of planet going around the sun, that one is named as revolution.
So, the number of oscillations, vibrations, rotations, revolutions per second in known as frequency. Thus, as the number has no unit and time has second as unit we get the unit for frequency as second -1

How do you find the period of the frequency?
The period is the reciprocal of the frequency.

What is the reciprocal of 1.74?
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, the reciprocal of 1.74, that is, 87/50, is 50/87.
How are period and frequency related?
I'm pretty sure they're related because the period is the reciprocal of the frequency, and the frequency is the reciprocal of the period...but I'm not sure WHY yet :P hope I could hrlp
