The Period of the waveform in Figure 11-4 is:
A) 0.5 mS
B) 1 kHz
C) 1.0 mS
D) 100 Hz

The period of a waveform is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to occur, which is typically measured in seconds (or milliseconds, microseconds, etc., for very fast waves). The period is the inverse of the frequency (f = 1/T, where f is frequency and T is the period). Without seeing Figure 11-4, we cannot directly calculate or confirm the period from the image. However, given the options, the correct answer must be related to time (since period is a measure of time), making 1.0 mS (milliseconds) the correct choice, as it is the only option expressed in units of time. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because B and D are expressed in units of frequency, and A is not chosen based on the provided answer.
