What is causing thumping sound which increases in frequency with acceleration in rear wheel of Ford Taurus?

The first thing I would check is for a bad tire.
The steel belts in the tire can separate and cause it to not run 'true'.
A bad tire also may not show a visible symptom - having the tire balanced is one way to identify a problem.
Another, no-cost diagnostic check would be to rotate the tires to the front and see if the sound / problem moves too.

You hear a loud thumping every once in a while at the back of your 2004 Elantra What could it be?
This could be a loose exhaust bracket causing it to hit the underside on acceleration.

In an AC circuit with only an inductor what will an increase in frequency do?
Inductor impedance is given by jwL, where w=2*pi*frequency. Therefore as the frequency increases the impedance of the inductor increases, causing a larger current flow and a larger power dissipation across the inductor
What does the freqency of a sound wave affect?
The frequency of a sound wave affects the pitch of the sound. If the frequency of a wave increases causing more waves for every second, the pitch will go up, and vice-versa.

This is because of rabbits communicating.
What is causing acceleration?
speed that is used.

Double the force which is causing the acceleration

Why is fire orange?
Colour of fire depends on its temperature. Heat energy ionises atoms by exciting the electrons in them. When electrons emit energy they fall back into their lower energy states emitting energy of frequency f (E=hf), in this case it would be the frequency of orange light. As a fire gets hotter E increases causing light of a higher frequency to be emitted.
What causes thumping when you step on the breaks?
It is most likely caused by a rotor that is warped. When you step on the brake pedal, the brake pads pulse against the uneven surface, causing a "thumping" you can feel. Other possibilities could include a bad wheel bearing or a tire that has tread that is separating.
What effect does a bottleneck have on the allele frequency of a population?
A bottleneck can lead to a significant reduction in the genetic diversity of a population, causing certain alleles to be lost and others to become more common. This can increase the frequency of rare alleles and result in genetic drift, potentially leading to an increase in genetic diseases or reduced fitness in the population.
What is the thumping noise from the engine compartment?
I have a 95 Camaro as well with the same problem. My problem was that my cam was eating up my lifters, and then they tried to fix the problem, and adjusted the valves wrong -- thus causing the thumping noise.AnswerIf you hear it when first pulling out or turning from a stop, it could be loose or damaged motor mounts.
