i am assuming your talking about musical instrument strings?? well, each string vibrates at different rates. when tuning a guitar for example standard tune is at 440 hertz [or wave modulations] so although all the strings are different size thickness or gauge, we're able to "tune" the instrument by changing and adjusting each strings "frequency" hope this helps !!

What is vibration of wave?
Vibration is the frequency of the wave.
What equals the frequency of a wave's rate?
The frequency of a wave is always equal to the rate of vibration of the source that creates it
The of vibration of a wave is defined as that which has the lowest frequency?
fundamental mode
The fundamental mode of vibration of a wave is defined as that which has the lowest?
frequency lowest
What is the number of vibration a wave makes in a certain amount of time?
Frequency
What is vibration of wave?
Vibration is the frequency of the wave.
What equals the frequency of a wave's rate?
The frequency of a wave is always equal to the rate of vibration of the source that creates it
The of vibration of a wave is defined as that which has the lowest frequency?
fundamental mode
Does the frequency of a wave increase if the source of vibration increases in energy?
no
How does frequency relate to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
The fundamental mode of vibration of a wave is defined as that which has the lowest?
frequency lowest
What is the number of vibration a wave makes in a certain amount of time?
Frequency
What happens to the wavelength the if we increase the frequency of vibration?
Provided the speed of the wave remains constant, as we increase the frequency of wave then wavelength decreases. Because frequency and wavelength are inversely related.
How does related to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
What is the frequency of a wave that has a period of vibration of two seconds?
0.5 Hz (that is, 0.5 persecond)
How does frequency of a wave compare with the frequency of the source?
The frequency of a radio wave compares to the frequency of the vibrating electrons that make it because the frequency of a radio wave is proportional to the frequency of the vibrating electrons that make it.
Describe how the wavelengths of a wave changes if the wave slows down and its frequency doesn't change?
the frequancy of a wave is always equal to the rate of vibration of the source that creates it.
