Answer:

b. speed of a wave

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is defined as the product between the wave's frequency and the wave's wavelength:

[tex]v=\lambda f[/tex]

where

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength of the wave

f is the frequency

Therefore, we see that this matches the definition listed in choice B:

b. speed of the wave.

The other options are:

a. number of waves passing a point in a second.  --> frequency

c. distance between wave crests.  --> wavelength

d. time for one full wave to pass. --> period
