→‎Experiment 2: Waves on a String

#Use the equation <math>v=f \lambda</math> to find the [[Wave Speed|wavespeed]] of the [[wave]].

#Repeat for different 5 [[frequency|frequencies]] of the [[wave]].

~~====Improving [[Accuracy]]====~~

~~: Count the number of [[wave]]s over a greater period of [[time]] greater than 10 [[second]]s to reduce the effect of [[Human Error|human error]] on the [[frequency]].~~

====Improving [[Precision]]====

: Calculate an [[Mean Average|average]] for the [[Wave Speed|wave speed]] over a greater number of [[results]] to ~~give a more~~ reduce the effect of [[~~precise~~Random Error|random error]]s, improving the [[precision]] ~~number~~.
