We are given:

Frequency of the wave = 100 Hz

Velocity of the wave = 5 m/s

Finding the Wavelength:

We know the relation between the wavelength and frequency is:

u = νλ [where ν is the frequency, u is the speed and λ is the wavelength]

5 = 100*(λ)

λ = 5/100 [dividing both sides by 100]

λ = 1/20

λ = 0.05 m

Hence, the wavelength is 0.05 m
