A simple harmonic wave of amplitude `8` units travels along positive x-axis. At any given instant of time, for a particle at a distance of `10 cm` from the origin, the displacement is `+ 6 units`, and for a particle at a distance of `25 cm` from the origin, the displacement is `+ 4` units. Calculate the wavelength.
