Equation of Waves

Wave is an oscillation or disturbance traveling in a medium. It performs the transportation of energy but does not carry any matter. This motion of waves will transport fuel in a medium without permanent transfer of mass (particle).

Question

An earthquake can produce a seiche in a lake in which the water sloshes back and forth from end to end with remarkably large amplitude and long period. Consider a seiche produced in a farm pond.
Suppose the pond is 8.18 m long and assume it has a uniform width and depth. You measure that a pulse produced at one end reaches the other end in 2.10 s.
(a) What is the wave speed?
m/s
(b) What should be the frequency of the ground motion during the earthquake to produce a seiche that is a standing wave with antinodes at each end of the pond and one node at the center?
Hz
