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".
