Part(a): The frequency is $\bf{0.2~Hz}$ .

Part(b): The speed of the wave is $\bf{0.5~m/s}$ .

Explanation:

Given:

The distance between the crests of the wave, d = 2.5~m .

The time required for the wave to laps against the pier, t = 5.0~s

The distance between any two crests of a wave is known as the wavelength of the wave. So the wavelength of the wave is $\lambda = 2.5~m$ .

Also, the time required for the wave for each laps is the time period of oscillation and it is given by T = 5.0~s .

Part(a):

The relation between the frequency and time period is given by

$\nu = \dfrac{1}{T}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)$

Substituting the value of in equation (1), we have

$\nu &=& \dfrac{1}{5.0~s}\\~~~&=& 0.2~Hz$

Part(b):

The relation between the velocity of a wave to its frequency is given by

$v = \nu \lambda~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(2)$

Substituting the value of $\nu$ and $\lambda$ in equation (2), we have

$v &=& (0.2~Hz)(2.5~m)\\~~~&=& 0.5~m/s$
