When you increase the tension on a piece of wire the speed of waves on it increase but the wavelength stays constant what happens to the frequency of the waves as the tension the wire is increased?

If the speed increased and the wavelngth stayed the same then the frequency would have to increase. Because Speed=Frequency*Wavelength Hope that helps


How did the wavelength in the spring change as it moved from side to side more quickly?

I wasn't there and didn't observe the experiment. But I would take a wild guessand say that as long as the tension in the spring doesn't change, the speed ofpropagation of waves in it is constant. So if you wiggle the end faster, the wavesmust get shorter.


Can acceleration change with out increase or decrease speed?

yes the 3 types of acceleration are increased speed decrease speed or change in direction.


How to adjust the Govenor on a 8 hp Briggs engine?

Replace or change the tension on the spring on the manual control to throttle connection. Most speed problems are caused by the manual cable control cable being maladjusted and one cannot get a mower to run at a decent speed.


What does Poe use to speed up the pacing and increase the tension in the passage?

What determines the maximum oil pressure in a force feed lubrication as the engine speed increases?

Oil pumps have a spring operated regulator and the spring's tension determines the max oil pressure.

When a body undergoes an acceleration does its speed increase or decrease?

Both. Acceleration is a change in speed.


The rate of change in the speed of an object is called?

Acceleration, it can be both increase and decrease in speed. .


How do you increase the speed of a turn?

In general, the way to increase speed of a turn is to add more energy. And, depending on how that energy is added, it can result in either acceleration or change in vector, both technically can be considered a change in speed.


What multiplicative factor would you increase tension if you double the speed of a wave on a string?

The speed of the standing waves in a string will increase by about 1.414 (the square root of 2 to be more precise) if the tension on the string is doubled. The speed of propagation of the wave in the string is equal to the square root of the tension of the string divided by the linear mass of the string. That's the tension of the string divided by the linear mass of the string, and then the square root of that. If tension doubles, then the tension of the string divided by the linear mass of the string will double. The speed of the waves in the newly tensioned string will be the square root of twice what the tension divided by the linear mass was before. This will mean that the square root of two will be the amount the speed of the wave through the string increases compared to what it was. The square root of two is about 1.414 or so.
