It is represented in ‘mathematical equations by the letter F< Time Period: It is the duration of time required for the quantity to complete one cycle. And is denoted by T. This is reciprocal of frequency. ‘Amplitude: Mathematically, the amplitude of a sine wave is the value of that sine wave at its peak.
