Wave speed (m/s) = frequency (Hz) x wavelength (m)
v = f (Weird upside-down y thing)

Wave speed (m/s) frequency (Hz) x wavelength (m)

Step 1: Write down what you know, with units.
frequency = 20Hz
wavelength = 30cm = 0.3m
Step 2: substitute quantities into the equation
wave speed = 20Hz x .3m
= 6m/s
Answer: wave speed = 6m/s
