Solution

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

Speed = Frequency x Wavelength

Given: Frequency = 20 Hz Wavelength = 2 m

Substitute the given values into the formula:

Speed = 20 Hz x 2 m = 40 m/s

So, the speed of the wave is 40 m/s. Therefore, the correct answer is D. 40 m/s.
