All three windows are the same size.

A has 10 complete waves visible through the window. B has 3, and C has 4.

So A must have the smallest wavelengths.

The answer is A.

The wavelength is the length to each curve. Each answer choice has the same length of a box so we can count the amount of curves in each option.

Option A has 10 visible curves.

Option B has 3 visible curves.

Option C has 4 visible curves.

Since option A has the most curves, that means that it has the shortest wavelengths.

Best of Luck!
