hey if you are telling that ,, it takes 5ms to move from mean position to extreme position then  then this time is equal to 1/4th of the total time period so get time period and take it inverse to find frequency,, i don get what is need of the other part ,( which gives the value of wavelength)

right sir.....other part it asked to find wavelength only
