Answer:

C. 0.02 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The wavelength is 0.2 m and the period is 50 seconds because the period is the time that the wave takes to travel past you. Then, the frequency can be calculated as

f = 1/T

Where T is the period. Replacing T = 50 s, we get

f = 1/50

f = 0.02 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is

C. 0.02 Hz
