Respuesta

The velocity of the wave is 88.8 m/s.

Explicación

## Step 1The velocity of a wave can be calculated using the formula:### **Velocity = Frequency * Wavelength**In this formula, the frequency is the number of cycles per second, measured in Hertz (Hz), and the wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs of the wave, measured in meters (m).## Step 2In this problem, the frequency of the wave is given as 12 Hz and the wavelength is given as 7.4 m.## Step 3Substitute these values into the formula to calculate the velocity:### **Velocity = 12 Hz * 7.4 m**
