10. What kind of wave does the vibrating string produce? How do you calculate the wavelength? A standing wave The wavelength is twice the length of the string Physics Talk 5.3

11. How does frequency relate to pitch? Equation for wave speed The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch Wave speed = wave frequency x wavelength Physics Talk 5.3

12. How do we solve for frequency? Rearrange the equation to read Physics Talk 5.3

13. What happened when you shortened the length of the string? How is this shown in the equation? The wavelength was shortened Pitch increased Frequency increased Dividing by a smaller number on the bottom, gives us a larger frequency If you have to share something with fewer people, you get more Physics Talk 5.3

15. What kind of mathematical relationship does this show? What is an inverse relationship? Inverse Relationship A relationship where when one value increases, the other decreases, or as one value decreases, the other increases Physics Talk 5.3

16. How is frequency an example of an inverse relationship? Decreasing the wavelength increases the frequency Physics Talk 5.3

17. How are tension and pitch related? Since the wavelength did not change, and the frequency increased, this means the wave speed increased An increase in tension, produces a larger force, which leads to a larger acceleration on the string (F=ma) Physics Talk 5.3

18. How are tension and pitch related? (continued) When the force accelerates the string, the wave speed increases and the string vibrates faster Since the wave is faster, the frequency must also be faster, leading to a higher pitch Physics Talk 5.3

19. What is a direct relationship? Example of direct relationship A relationship where as one value increases, the other value also increases Increasing the wave speed also increases the frequency and pitch Physics Talk 5.3

20. How does increasing the thickness of the string lead to a different pitch? When the string is larger, it has a greater mass for the wave to travel through This also means it takes more force to stop the string from vibrating The force is the tension in the string Physics Talk 5.3

21. How does increasing the thickness of the string lead to a different pitch? Since the mass is heavier, the acceleration will be less (F=ma) This creates a slower wave speed Decreasing wave speed will decrease the frequency and pitch Physics Talk 5.3

22. When do standing waves occur? How does string length related to standing waves? When the length of the coiled spring or string has a certain relationship The length much be 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2, etc of the wavelength Physics Talk 5.3

23. Equation for standing waves Standing waves occur when the following equation is met: L = string length n = the number of antinodes (crests) Lambda = wavelength Physics Talk 5.3

24. How do you calculate the period for a wave? How is a period related to the frequency? T is the period The frequency is the reciprocal of the period Physics Talk 5.3
