Given what we know, we can confirm that when the student moves the compressed coiled spring faster but keeps everything else the same, she is effectively increasing the wave frequency of the model.

What we know about wave frequency.

  • Wave frequency measures number of times waves pass through a specific point over an interval of time.
  • This refers to the speed at which waves are passing, which increases when the student moves the coiled spring faster.
  • The amplitude of the wave model is given by the coil's length.
  • The crest and wavelengths are given by the shape and length of the coil respectively.

We can confirm that since the student did not make any changes to the shape of the coil, its compression, or its length, she did not affect the amplitude, crest, or wavelength for the model. Therefore, only the frequency of the wave model increased with this change.
