Asked by Anna
A stretched string is attached to an oscillator. On which of the following quantities does the wavelength of the waves on the string depend? Select all that apply.
The choices are:
A) The frequency of the oscillator.
B) The tension applied to the string.
C) The amplitude of the oscillator's motion.
D) The linear mass density of the string.
I think the correct answers are A, B, and D.
Can someone tell me if I am right or not?
Thanks in advance!

The tension and mass density determine the speed of the wave along the string.
The input frequency is the wave frequency
wavelength = speed * period = speed/frequency
so
frequency, tension and mass density
right
