State the ways by which the frequency of transverse vibrations of a stretch string can be increased?


The frequency of the transverse vibration is given by,

Error converting from MathML to accessible text.
where,

Error converting from MathML to accessible text. is the length of the vibrating string,
T is the tension in the string

m is the mass per unit length of the string

Therefore, the frequency of transverse vibration of a stretched string can be increased by,

i) decreasing the length of the string,
ii) decreasing the radius of the string,
iii) increasing the tension T in the string.
