This chart shows characteristics of three different waves, all with the same wavelength of 10 m but moving at different frequencies.

A 3-column table with 2 rows titled Waves at Different Frequencies. The first column has entries Wave X and 6 hertz. The second column has entries Wave Y and 0.5 hertz. The third column has entries Wave Z and 2 hertz.

Which statement is best supported by the information in the chart?

Wave Y is moving the fastest.
Wave X is moving the fastest.
All of the waves are moving at the same speed.
All of the waves have the same value of wavelengths per second.

Wave X is moving the fastest.

Explanation: speed v = f · λ. With λ = 10 m, vX = 6·10 = 60 m/s, vY = 0.5·10 = 5 m/s, vZ = 2·10 = 20 m/s, so Wave X has the largest speed.
