What is the wave speed of a wave that has a wave period of 10 seconds?

You would have to know the medium and the type of wave.
For example a sound wave with a period of 10 seconds would be well down in the infrasonic. In sound, a 1kHz wave has a wavelength of ~1 ft. A 1 Hz wave would have a wavelength of ~1000 ft. A 0.1Hz wave has a wavelength of ~10 000ft.
BUT, if it were a compression wave in an earthquake, one would be dealing with swampy ground.
A wave at sea in deep water (mid Pacific or mid Atlantic) could have such a period. An e-m wave of 0.1Hz would have a wavelength well towards our Sun.
And not all media have a uniform wave velocity. e-m waves at very low frequencies travel much slower than the common ones - at least around the earth. And you know that all colours of light do not travel at equal speeds in glass.

The period of an ocean wave is 10 seconds what is the wave's frequency?
Period = 1/FrequencySo if we set Frequency = x THEN:10 = 1/x10x = 1x = 1/10IF Period of a Wave is 10 Seconds THEN The Frequency =1/10 or .10
What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 miles per seconds and a wave length of 10 millimeters?
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) Period = 1 / (frequency) = (wavelength) / (speed) = (0.01 meter) / (50 mi/sec x 1609.344 meters/mi) = 0.1243 microsecond (rounded)
Suppose that a sine wave has a period of 0.1 seconds What is the frequency of this wave?
10 Hz
What is the speed of the wave if it travels 10 meters in 2 seconds?
ok
A wave frequency of 10 hertz would correspond to a period of how many seconds?
0.1 seconds
What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 meters per second and a wavelength of 10 milimeters?
Period = Wavelength/Speed = 10mm/50,000 mm/s = 1/5000 s or 0.0002 seconds
The period of an ocean wave is 10 seconds what is the wave's frequency?

10 Hz
What is the celerity speed of a deep water wave having a period of 10 seconds What is its wavelength please help?
Celerity speed of a deep water wave is 16.6 meters per sec. with a wavelength of 166 meters.
What is the speed of the wave if it travels 10 meters in 2 seconds?
ok
A wave frequency of 10 hertz would correspond to a period of how many seconds?
0.1 seconds
A wave frequency of 10 Hertz would correspond to a period of?
since the period is the reciprocal of frequency, the period is 1/10 seconds.
If a transverse wave travels 10 meters in 5 seconds what it its speed?
Pp
How far can a radio wave travel in 5 seconds?
Speed of light 3.0*10^8 m/s times 5 seconds = 15*10^8m
What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 meters per second and a wavelength of 10 millimeters?
Frequency = speed/wavelengthPeriod = 1/frequency = wavelength/speed = 0.01/50 = 0.2 millisecond
What is the period of the wave having amplitude 1.25cm and wavelength 2cm?
The amplitude has nothing to do with the period of the wave, but you do have to know its speed.Period = (wavelength) / (speed)If you're talking about sound, then the speed is 343 meters per second.Period = (0.02) / (343) = 5.831 x 10-5 seconds = 0.00005831 second.If you're talking about electromagnetic waves, then the speed is 300,000,000 meters per second.Period = (0.02) / (300,000,000) = 6.67 x 10-11 second = 0.0000000000667 second.
