Answer:
Wave speed is a wave property, which may refer to absolute value of: phase velocity, the velocity at which a wave phase propagates at a certain frequency. group velocity, the propagation velocity for the envelope of wave groups and often of wave energy, different from the phase velocity for dispersive waves.

Answer:
Wave speed is related to both wavelength and wave frequency. ... Speed = Wavelength x Wave Frequency. In this equation, wavelength is measured in meters and frequency is measured in hertz (Hz), or number of waves per second. Therefore, wave speed is given in meters per second, which is the SI unit for speed.
