Which procedure could help decide whether a string's total length has a separate effect from...
(A) Repeating the experiment with a string that does not noticeably
stretch when the tension is increased
(B) Repeating the experiment but producing standing waves with two
antinodes
(C) Repeating the … Edit: the question comes from an AP physics 1 practice test but the unit concerning waves was removed from the test, but because the question is testing knowledge in an experimental/lab setting it's still …

What frequency of cord shaking maintains the same vertical motion for a point on the cord af...
I'm studying for my upcoming AP Physics 1 exam but can't figure out this problem
A student shakes a horizontally-stretched cord, creating waves. … The student then tightens the cord so that waves on it will travel faster than before. …
