Solution

The correct option is B
$1.47 H z$

The explanation for the correct option
Step 1: Given
The time required for maximum displacement is $0.17 s e c$
Step 2: Formula used
Frequency $= \frac{1}{t i m e p e r i o d}$
Step 3: Solution for frequency
The total time period taken by the wave would be $= 4 \times 0.17 \Rightarrow 0.68$ as it would take 4 turns to cover the distance
frequency $= \frac{1}{t i m e p e r i o d}$
$= \frac{1}{0.68} = 1.47 H z$
Hence, option B is correct.
