Answer:

The frequency of the wave will be 53.85 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

to determine our answer, we can use the following formula "Speed = Wavelength x Frequency."

Speed = 280 m/s

wavelength = 5.2 meters

frequency = ?

meaning, 280 m/s=5.2 times x

divide each side by 5.2

x=700/13 or 53 11/13, or x=53.85
