I don't know what rhythm means. I can't really find where it means anywhere. Maybe I'm not a good searcher but I really really try to search it out. I know the period is the length of one cycle. I know the amplitude is the halfway distance between the max and min of a sine or cosine function. I know the frequency is the number of cycles completed in a unit interval.

It probably refers to frequency, although it’s a weird choice of words for sure.

I will probably change it to that or to the period and forget that word ever existed. Thanks @KM101

No problem. Period was used later on, so I’d guess it’s the former.

So is frequency though

It sounds like period to me. (Which is something essential that is missing). But without examples or the lesson text is pretty much impossible to say for certain.
