A

displacement amplitude of the wave is `0.25 m`, wavelength is `1 m`, wave speed is `2.5 m//s` and the frequency of the driving force is `0.2 //s`.

B

displacement amplitude of the wave is `2.0 m`, wavelength is `2 m`, wave speed is `0.4 m//s` and the frequency of the driving force is `0.7 //s`.

C

displacement amplitude of the wave is `0.25 m`, wavelength is `2 m`, wave speed is `5 m//s` and the frequency of the driving force is `2.5 //s`.

D

displacement amplitude of the wave is `0.5 m`, wavelength is `2 m`, wave speed is `2.5 m//s` and the frequency of the driving force is `0.2//s`.
