   * Similarly, the green wave oscillates at 50,000,000 cycles per second, so only one of those cycle would take $\frac{1}{50,000,000}$ s or 2 x 10<sup>-8</sup> s or 20 ns.   * Similarly, the green wave oscillates at 50,000,000 cycles per second, so only one of those cycle would take $\frac{1}{50,000,000}$ s or 2 x 10<sup>-8</sup> s or 20 ns.
