#16\ "m"/"s"#

Explanation:

Remember that #c=flambda#, where #c# is the speed of the wave, #f# is the frequency, and #lambda# is the wavelength.

The wavelength can be measured as the distance between the crests, or #8.00\ "m"#. The frequency is #2\ "Hz"#. Thus, the speed of the wave is #8.00\ "m"*2\ "Hz"=16\ "m"/"s"#.
