Apologies for the confusion. I made an error in my response. We can determine the frequency of a wave using the equation:

frequency (f) = velocity (v) / wavelength (λ)

Using the information from the table, we can calculate the frequencies of the waves:

For wave L: f = 600 m/s / 120 m = 5 Hz
For wave M: f = 600 m/s / 150 m = 4 Hz
For wave N: f = 600 m/s / 100 m = 6 Hz
For wave O: f = 600 m/s / 50 m = 12 Hz

Therefore, the wave with the lowest frequency is wave M, with a frequency of 4 Hz.

The characteristic that will increase when the compressed coiled spring is moved faster is the frequency.
