  1. The time period of vibration can be calculated using the formula:

    Time Period = 1/Frequency

    Given:
    Frequency of mosquito’s wings = 500 vibrations per second

    Using the formula:
    Time Period = 1/(500 vibrations/second)
    Time Period = 0.002 seconds

    Therefore, the time period of the vibration of the mosquito’s wings is 0.002 seconds.
