The period of a wave can be calculated using the formula:
\[
\text{Period} (T) = \frac{1}{\text{Frequency} (f)}
\]
Given that the frequency \( f \) is 425 Hz, we can calculate the period:
\[
T = \frac{1}{425 \, \text{Hz}} \approx 0.00235 \, \text{seconds}
\]
So, the period of the sound wave is approximately **0.00235 seconds**.
