A string fixed at both ends is vibrating in one of its harmonics. If we now increase only the frequency at which the string is vibrating, which of the following characteristics do we also increase? There could be more than one answer. A) The period of the traveling waves on the string
B) The wavelength of the traveling waves on the string
C) The speed of the traveling waves on the string.
D) The amplitude of the traveling waves on the string.
E) None of the above

Options C

The speed of the travelling waves on the string.

Explanation:

When a string fixed at both ends is made to vibrate faster, this is the same as increasing the frequency of the wave traveling through the string.

from the wave equation,

v = velocity of the wave

f = frequency of the wave

λ = wavelength

We can see that the speed (velocity) of the waves travelling in the string increase once the frequency increases. this is because there is a direct proportionality between the two wave parameters. This makes option C correct.

The others are wrong for the following reasons:

Option A: The period decreases with increasing frequency

Option B: The wavelength decreases with increasing frequency

Option D: The amplitude is not affected by the frequency

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
