Problem

A transverse wave on a string has the following graphical information: • The distance between two successive crests on a displacement–position graph is 0.40 m0.40\,\text{m}. • The time interval between successive crests on a displacement–time graph at a single point is 0.010 s0.010\,\text{s}. Calculate the speed of propagation of the wave along the string.
