If the speed of a wave doubles while the wavelength stays the same what happens to the frequency?
It will simply double.
Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency
or in your case
Velocity = Frequency x wavelength

Except that would demand unusual conditions.
'
Doubling of speed can only happen if the wave passes from its first medium to another of very different properties. Any given wave motion has a speed constant for any medium itself that is able to transmit it.
'
For sound, the speed is approximately 340m/s in air, 1500m/s in water (varying very slightly with the density of the air or water). This is irrespective of frequency hence irrespective of wavelength.
'
So for a single medium, as the speed cannot change (ignoring small changes due to density changes) the wavelength is always inversely proportional to frequency only.

If the speed of a wave doubles while the frequency remains the same what happens to the wavelength?
The wavelength stays constant.
What happens to the frequency of a wave if the wavelength is reduced by half and it stays the same speed?
it doubles
What happens to frequency of a wave if speed is doubled?
The frequency also doubles of the wave length stays the same. Remember that Velocity = (the wavelength) x (the frequency)
What happens when you increase the speed of a wave what happens to the wavelength?
If the frequency remains constant, then the wavelength increases.
What happens to the speed of a wave if the wavelength and frequency are changed?
The speed changes.
If the speed of a wave doubles while the frequency remains the same what happens to the wavelength?
The wavelength stays constant.
What happens to the frequency of a wave if the wavelength is reduced by half and it stays the same speed?
it doubles
If the speed of a wave doubles while the wavelength remains the same what happens to the wavelength?
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.
What happens to frequency when you double wavelength?
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.
What happens to frequency of a wave if speed is doubled?
The frequency also doubles of the wave length stays the same. Remember that Velocity = (the wavelength) x (the frequency)
What happens to the wavelength of a wave when the frequency of the wave is doubled but the wave speed stays the same?
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.
What happens to the wavelenght of a wave when the frequencey of the wave doubled but speed stays same?
Speed = wavelength x frequency, so wavelength = speed / frequency. Therefore, the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency. Double the frequency means half the wavelength.
What happens to the you increase the wavelength?
Remember that wavelength x frequency = speed of the wave.If you increase the wavelength, the frequency will decrease - since the speed of most waves is more or less independent of the frequency or wavelength.
If a waves frequency doubles it's wavelength is?
Halved. The wavelength and frequency of a wave are inversely proportional, meaning that if the frequency doubles, the wavelength is halved in order to maintain a constant wave speed.
For a given wave if the frequency doubles the wavelength?
If the frequency doubles, the wavelength is halved. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional in a wave. This relationship is described by the formula: frequency x wavelength = speed of the wave.
What happens when you increase the speed of a wave what happens to the wavelength?
If the frequency remains constant, then the wavelength increases.
What happens to the speed of a wave if the wavelength and frequency are changed?
The speed changes.
