A progressive wave is one that travels continuously in a medium without changing in amplitude or direction and is given by the equation

Y=ASin(Kx-ωt)
HereA= Amplitude K= Wave vector, t=time and x=distance
The wave vector is the quantity used to express the amount and direction of motion, which is given by
K=2πλ

The wave vector is the quantity used to express the amount and direction of motion, which is given by

K=2πλ
Here λ=Wavelength
Given y=2sin(314t-4x+π/2)
The equation of progressive wave is given by
Y=Asin(KX-ωt)

Comparing the given equation to the above equation
K=4
The wave vector is given by
2πλ=4
λ=2π4=π2=1.57 m
Hence, option 4 is the answer
