Step 1: Identify the time coordinates of the points on the wave. From the given displacement-time graph: • The wave starts at O (t=0). • Point P is at the first crest. A full period (T) is the time for one complete oscillation. Visually, one complete oscillation ends at point C. So, the time coordinate of C is T. • The first crest (point P) occurs at t_P = (T)/(4). • Point B is where the wave crosses the time axis going downwards after the first crest. This occurs at t_B = (T)/(2). • Point D is where the wave crosses the time
