Velocity (unit:m/s) of the wave is given with the formula:

v=f∧,

where f is the frequency which tells us how many waves are passing a point per second (unit: Hz) and ∧ is the wavelength, which tells us the length of those waves in metres (unit:m)

f=1/T , where T is the period of the wave.

In our case: f=1/3

∧=v/f=24m/s/1/3=24*3=72m
