Answer:

f = 2200 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of a wave is 242 m/s

The distance between crests is 0.11 m

We need to find the frequency of the wave. The distance between crests is called wavelength of a wave. So,


v=f\lambda\\\\f=(v)/(\lambda)\\\\f=(242)/(0.11)\\\\f=2200\ Hz

So, the frequency of the wave is 2200 Hz.
