Wavelength, λ(lambda), and frequency, f, are just different ways of perceiving a moving waveform. They are connected by the wave velocity, v, of the medium:
v = λ * f, f = v / λ, λ = v / f
Sound in air is 343 m/s (at 20 degrees celsius);
Sound in water is 1450 m/s (at 0 degrees celcius);
Light speed uses a different velocity term:
c = 299,792,458 m/s.
c = λ * f, f = c / λ, λ = c / f
No, frequency and wavelength are not the same thing. Frequency refers to the number of wave cycles passing a point per unit of time, while wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points on a wave that are in phase. They are inversely related in a wave, with frequency being the inverse of wavelength.
they are inversely proportional.
Yes ,yes they are.
The frequency and wavelength are the same thing. Not effected by the amplitude in the least. (Velocity= frequency x wavelength).
They differ in frequency. (That's exactly the same thing as saying that they differ in wavelength, since frequency and wavelength are firmly connected.) (That's also the same thing as saying that they differ in the quantity of energy carried by each photon, since the amount of energy carried by each photon is firmly connected to frequency.)
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.
If the frequency of a wave is left unchanged, the wavelength will also remain constant. Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional, so they always adjust together to maintain the speed of the wave.
The speed of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency. This relationship is described by the equation: speed = wavelength x frequency. In other words, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases, and vice versa, to maintain a constant wave speed.

Velocity equals frequency times wavelength. If frequency is constant, velocity is proportional to wavelength; one increases at the same rate as the other.
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.
