Problem

For a transverse wave travelling along a straight line, the distance between two peaks (crests) is 5 m, while the distance between one crest and one trough is 1.5 m. The possible wavelengths (in m) of the waves are: (1) 1, 3, 5, ..... (2) 11,13,15,…\frac{1}{1}, \frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{5}, \dots (3) 1, 2, 3, ..... (4) 12,14,16,…\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{6}, \dots
