This generally happens when a wave moves from one medium into another.Now, the velocity (v) of a wave (mechanical and electromagnetic) is equal to the product of its frequency (f) and wavelength (λ).So, v = f x λThat means if frequency is constant, the wavelength is directly proportional to the velocity.So, if the speed of the wave increases (while frequency remains the same), the wavelength will also increase.
they all have a direct relationship so one of the variables would have to change to effect the other
The speed of the wave increases, the frequency remains constant and the wavelength increases. The angle of the wave also changes.
the equation relating wavelength and frequency is : c=n*l ; where n=frequency; l=wavelength; c=velocity of light in vacuum. Now, we know that c is constant always. So, if any one between n and l changes, the other also has to change accordingly so that there product, 'c', remains same, i.e. 3 * 108. Thus, if wavelength of a given wave decreases then its frequency gets increased to bring the product of the new wavelength and new frequency again to 3*108.
If the speed of a wave doubles while the wavelength remains constant, the frequency of the wave must also double. This is governed by the equation speed = frequency x wavelength. So, if speed doubles and wavelength remains the same, frequency increases correspondingly.
If the frequency remains constant, then the wavelength increases.
Provided the speed of the wave remains constant, as we increase the frequency of wave then wavelength decreases. Because frequency and wavelength are inversely related.
If wavelength increases, frequency decreases inversely. Wave energy remains the same since it is determined by amplitude and not by wavelength or frequency.
When you double the wavelength of a wave, its frequency is halved. This relationship is described by the formula: speed = wavelength x frequency. Since the speed of the wave remains constant, any change in wavelength must be accompanied by a corresponding change in frequency to maintain this equilibrium.
If the frequency of a wave is doubled while the wave speed remains constant, the wavelength of the wave will be halved. This is because wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional in a wave, so when one doubles, the other is halved to keep the wave speed constant.
If the speed of a wave remains the same while the wavelength stays constant, the frequency also remains unchanged. This is because the relationship between the speed, wavelength, and frequency of a wave is given by the equation speed = frequency x wavelength. So, if two of these values are constant, the third one will be constant as well.
The wavelength gets shorter. If the propagation speed remains the same, the wavelength (L) decreases by the inverse of the frequency f. For electromagnetic waves c = fL is a constant.
If frequency is tripled, the wavelength will be one-third of its original value. This is because the speed of the wave remains constant, so as frequency increases, wavelength decreases to maintain a constant speed.
If the frequency decreases and the wavelength increases, the speed of the wave remains constant. This is because the speed of a wave is determined by the medium it's traveling through, not by its frequency or wavelength.
When the amplitude and frequency of a wave are both increased, the wavelength remains constant. Amplitude affects the intensity or loudness of the wave, while frequency determines the pitch. Therefore, changing the amplitude and frequency does not alter the wavelength of the wave.
When frequency decreases, the wavelength increases. This is because the speed of a wave remains constant in a given medium (like air or water), so as frequency decreases, the wavelength has to increase in order to maintain that constant speed.
