AI Generated Solution

To find the wavelength of a transverse wave given the distance between a crest and an immediate trough is 15 meters, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Wave Structure**: - A transverse wave consists of crests (high points) and troughs (low points). The wavelength (λ) is defined as the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase, such as from one crest to the next crest or from one trough to the next trough. 2. **Identify the Given Information**: ...

In a transverse wave the distance between a crest and neighbouring trough at the same instant is 4.0 cm and the distance between a crest and trought at the same place is 1.0cm. The next crest appears at the same place after a time interval of 0.4s. The maximum speed of the vibrating particles in the medium is:
