Question

It the frequency of a wave is increased it’s

and
will decrease but its
will stay the same.

Answer 1

Wavelength will decrease but frequency will stay the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. The relationship between wavelength and frequency is called an inverse relationship, because as the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases.

However, the frequency usually remains the same because it is like a driven oscillation and maintains the frequency of the original source. If v changes and f remains the same, then the wavelength λ λ must change. Since v = f λ v = f λ , the higher the speed of a sound, the greater its wavelength for a given frequency.
