Increasing the tension of a spring affects a wave on the spring because it increases the frequency. When the tension rises, so does the frequency.

Answer: Increases the frequency of the wave

Explanation:

Increasing the tension of a spring means increasing its stiffness. The wave produced thereafter has greater frequency.  

Higher tension causes the spring to have greater restoring force causing it to quickly come back to its equilibrium position. Thus, the speed of the wave also increases.
