A sine wave is travelling in a medium the minimum distance between the two particles always having same speed is (lamda)/2.
A sine wave has both maxima and a minima. The speed at the maximum and the minimum points are the same whereas the direction of motions are different. The difference between the positions (antinodes) of maxima and minima is equal to half of wavelength. Therefore, the speed is equal to a maximum when the particle is at the nodes.
