Answer:

Remains constant

Step-by-step explanation:

As the wave travels from A to B in the pool, their frequency remains constant and so their wavelength.

A wave is a disturbance that transmits energy from one point to another. The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that crosses a point per unit of time. Wavelength is the differences between successive troughs or crests in a wave diagram.

  • Both frequency and wavelength are related.
  • If the frequency of a wave is kept constant, the wavelength will also not change.
  • Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength.
  • The higher the frequency of a wave, the lesser its wavelength and vice versa.
