Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, increasing the frequency of a wave will not increase it's wavelength. Rather it will decrease the wavelength because frequency and wavelength are inversely related.

According to Formula:

v = f(lemda)

If the speed is kept constant to find the relationship between f and wavelength.

=> f is inversely propotional to wavelength.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!
