they are called "cells"
hope this is the answer is what your looking for.
Answer:
The frequency increases by a factor of 3.
Explanation:
The relation between speed, wavelength and frequency of a wave is given by :

or

A wave travels at a constant speed. If the wavelength is reduced by a factor of 3, it would mean that the frequency increases by a factor of 3 because there is an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency.
The period of the pendulum is the reciprocal of the frequency:

The period of the pendulum is given by

where L is the length of the pendulum, and g the acceleration of gravity. By re-arranging the formula and using the value of T we found before, we can calculate the length of the pendulum L:
Explanation:
Water does expand with heat (and contract with cooling), but the amount of expansion is pretty small. So when you boil a can filled with water and seal it, the water will contract slightly as it cools. The can may kink slightly, but that will be it. Actually, most likely the only things you will be able to see is then top and bottom will be sucked in and go concave. Just like a commercial can of beans.
Now if you have a can with a little water and a big air space, things are completely different.
As the water boils, water vapour is given off. Steam. Let it boils for a minute just to make sure (nearly) all the air is expelled and the can is filled with steam.
Now when you put the lid on and cool the can, that steam condenses back to water, and goes from filling the can to a few drops of water. The can is now filled (if that is the right word) with a near vacuum, The air pressure, 15 lbs/square inch, will be pressing on every surface of the can, with nothing inside the can to resist it.
The can will crumple before your eyes.
