Responses

A. 0.045 m/s

B. 450 m/s

C. 4,500 m/s

D. 22.2 m/s

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot]

The speed of a wave can be calculated using the formula:

speed = wavelength x frequency

In this case, the wavelength is 4.5 meters and the frequency is 100 hertz.

So,

speed = 4.5 m x 100 Hz

speed = 450 m/s

Therefore, the correct answer is B. 450 m/s.
