 λ4=0.1       λ=0.4m
from graph      T=0.2sec.  and amplitude of standing wave is   2A=4 cm.
Equation of the standing wave 
 y(x,t)=2Acos(2π0.4x).sin(2π0.2t)cm y(x=0.05,t=0.05)=22cm y(x=0.04,t=0.025)=22cos36° speed =λT= 2 m/sec. Vy=dydt=2A×2π0.2cos(2πx0.4).cos(2πt0.2) Vy = (x = 115m, t = 0.1) = 20 π cm/sec.
