Question

If a musician increases the wavelength of the sound waves

she produces without changing their speed, what must be happening to the frequency?
Explain your answer.

Answer 1

The frequency decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequency will decrease as the wavelength continues to increase.

Wavelength is the distance between successive crests or troughs on a wave motion.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time.

it is expressed as;

f =
`(speed )/(wavelength)`

We can see that frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength.

As wavelength increases the frequency reduces.
