Increasing string tension raises the frequency of a single-bead oscillator

Evidence

Starting with one bead, notice the frequency increase as the tension is increased. Leave external forces and damping off; we get to those in the next chapter. The sound of a harmonic oscillator is the pure but boring sinusoid. There is one mode, one frequency. — Eric J. Heller, Why You Hear What You Hear- An…, 779
