The velocity of a wave is described by the following equation:

[tex]v= \lambda f[/tex]

Where v is velocity, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency.  Note that the wavelength given is: [tex]13mm=13 \times 10^{-3}m[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]v=(13 \times 10^{-3}m)(4Hz)=0.052m/s=5.2 \times 10^{-2}m/s=5.2cm/s[/tex]

The velocity is 5.2 cm/second or 0.052 m/s or 52 mm/s
