Answer

$f=2Hz$

Work Step by Step

Compare the given equation $y=6.0sin(0.020\pi{x}+4.0\pi{t})$ with $y_{(x,t)}=y_m sin(kx+\omega{t})$ thus $\omega=4.0\pi$ Frequency $f$ can be calculated from the following fromula $\omega=2\pi{f}$ or $f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}$ putting the value of $\omega$, we get $f=\frac{4.0\pi}{2\pi}$ $f=2Hz$
