Answer:

v = 102 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The frequency of a wave, f = 60 Hz

Wavelength = 1.7 m

We need to find the speed of this wave. The formula for the speed of a wave is given by


v=f\lambda

Substitute all the values,


v=60* 1.7\\\\v=102\ m/s

So, the speed of the wave is equal to 102 m/s.
