Answer:


\huge{\boxed{212 \: \text{m/s}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the wave given it's frequency and wavelength can be found by using the formula;


\bold{v = f * \lambda}

where f is the frequency in Hz and
\lambda is the wavelength in m

From the question

f = 53 Hz


\lambda = 4 m


\large{v = 53 * 4 = 212}

We have the final answer as

212 m/s
