How wavelength of wave traveling with the same speed would change if the frequency of the wave increase?

1 Answer

Answer :

The speed of a wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the frequency (speed = wavelength/frequency). So if the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength will decrease.
