From the first image, we know that it is a graph that shows a particle's movement on a string as a function of time. Its amplitude is 2m, the period is 0.5s, and frequency, 2Hz. The second image shows the same wave but as a function of distance. What would be its amplitude, wavelength, and wave speed?

Question

From the first image, we know that it is a graph that shows a particle's movement on a string as a function of time. Its amplitude is 2m, the period is 0.5s, and frequency, 2Hz. The second image shows the same wave but as a function of distance. What would be its amplitude, wavelength, and wave speed?

**(I specifically make mistakes when calculating the wave speed)
