Question

If the number of troughs that pass a point in a given time increases, what has increased?

wavelength

frequency

amplitude

intensity

Answer 1

wave length i think                                               hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer: The frequency.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time that two consecutive troughs pass through a fixed point, means that the wave did a complete lapse, and this time-lapse is called the period of the wave.

Now, if we increase the number of troughs that pass in a fixed amount of time, this means that the period of the wave decreases (this means that the period is a little smaller)

Now, as we know, the frequency is inversely proportional (T = 1/f where T is the period and f is the frequency) to the period of the wave, so this would mean that the frequency is being increased
