Answer:

D. 20 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The period and the frequency are related by the following equation


f=(1)/(T)

Where f is the frequency and T is the period. So, if the period T = 0.05 seconds, the frequency is


f=\frac{1}{0.05\text{ s}}=20\text{ Hz}

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 20 Hz.
