A wave travelling on a string at a speed...

A wave travelling on a string at a speed of `10 ms^-1` causes each particle of the string to oscillate with a time period of 20 ms. (a) What is the wavelength of the wave ? (b) If the displacement of a particle is 1.5 mm at a certain instant, what will be the displacement of a particle 10 cm away from it at the same instant ?
