    Answer: Wavelength = 3.5 km

    Explanation:

    The wave equation is given as:

    v = f * λ - - - (1)

    Where v = speed of the earthquake wave = 14 km/s = 14 * 1000 m/s

    f = frequency of the earthquake wave = 4 Hz

    λ = wavelength of the earthquake wave = ?

    Plug in the values in Equation (1):

    (1) = > 14 * 1000 = 4 * λ

    λ = 3500 m

    λ = 3.5 km
