It depends on what you mean by waves. However, the basic equation used in waves is:

wavelength = velocity/frequency

or in actual writing:

λ = v/f

The velocity, also known as speed, is pretty self explanatory. It is no different from "the measurement of a travelling object", except this is the measurement of a wave through its medium (if it has one).

The frequency is the number of waves that occur or that pass a specified point, per unit time, usually recorded as a hertz or cycles per second.

Easy? :D

How do you solve numerical problems on kinematics in concept of physics by h c verma?

The questions in H C Verma are a bit conceptual in nature. Study the book thoroughly first and then try the in-text questions. After that even if you find it difficult to solve. Study other books like Mtg Interactive Physics, Ncert, Fundamentals of physics. I hope after that you will be able to solve the questions.
