The Speed of a Wave on a String
The speed of a wave on a string can be found by multiplying the wavelength by the frequency or by dividing the wavelength by the period.

Reflections
When transverse waves in strings meet one end, they are reflected, and when the incident wave meets the reflected wave, interference occurs.
