Question

Wavelength, frequency, and energy are related. What happens to a wave as its

wavelength gets shorter?

A. Its frequency and energy increase
B. Its frequency and energy decrease
C. Its frequency increases, while its energy decreases
D. Its frequency decreases, while its energy increases.

Answer 1

D

Step-by-step explanation:

As the wavelength of a wave gets shorter, its frequency increases, while its energy increases. This relationship is described by the equation E = hf, where E is the energy, h is Planck's constant and f is the frequency of the wave.
