What is the distance between adjacent crests of ocean waves that have a frequency of 0.20 Hz if the waves have a speed of 2.4 m/s?

12 m

Explanation:

f = 0.2 Hz, v = 2.4 m/s

v = f x λ

Where, λ is the wavelength

λ = v / f = 2.4 / 0.2 = 12 m

The wavelength is defined as the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs.

So, the distance between two consecutive crests is 12 m.
