Answer: Frequency = 15Hz

Explanation:

Given that

Wavelength (λ) = 3 m

Wave speed V = 45 m/s

Wave speed is the product of frequency and wavelength. That is

V = f(λ)

Substitute wavelength and wave speed into the formula

45 = f × 3

Make f the subject of the formula

f = 45/3

f = 15 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the ocean wave is 15 Hz
