How does the wavelength of waves travel with the same speed would change if the frequency of the waves increased?
The wavelength of waves travelling with the same speed would decrease if the frequency of the waves increases. This is because, speed of a wave is the product of the distance of the wavelength times the frequency of the wave. The velocity of a wave is usually constant in a given medium.
Can gps signals travel underwater?
No. The GPS signal is high-frequency radio waves. High frequency radio waves cannot travel through water.
What is the plural of frequency?
The plural of frequency is frequencies. As in "radio waves travel on different frequencies".
Do waves with a higher frequency travel faster?
yes, and and waves like that are normally more dangerous.
Can a high frequency carrier wave travel longer distance than low frequency carrier wave?
High frequency radio waves over ~100 MHz will usually travel only in a straight line - hence these applications are called 'line of sight'. Waves of lower frequency, say 500KHz to 30MHz (rough values only) are bounced off the ionosphere and can travel round the world. Waves of very low frequency, 10 KHz to 20KHz, can penetrate sea water, and are used to communicate with subs. But they are of such low frequency that they can carry no effective modulation other than ON or OFF. But they can do a job that nothing else can do.
Which has a higher frequencies am radio waves or fm radio waves?
FM radio has the higher frequency which is why it sounds better. AM is a lower frequency but can travel further because the waves bounce off
Can rf can travel in vacuum?
If you mean radio-frequency, yes, all electromagnetic waves can travel in a vacuum.
Do waves created by a large disturbance travel faster than waves created by a small disturbance do?
No, waves with a smaller disturbance travel faster. This is because they have less distance to travel.
What does the time-distance graph of seismic waves show?
The time-distance graph of seismic waves shows the relationship between the time it takes for seismic waves to travel and the distance they travel. It helps in determining the speed at which seismic waves propagate through the Earth's interior and provides information about the structure and composition of the Earth's layers.
How are sound and surface waves longitudinal waves?
Because the vibrations of both the waves travel parallel to the direction of propagation of waves. For eg: both the waves have amplitude, frequency etc.
What is the frequency of radio wave?
Fm radio waves travel at various frequencies between 87.5 MHz and 108.0 MHz
Why do radio waves travel faster than the sound wave?
Radio waves are just low frequency light waves. They travel at the speed of light, much faster than sound waves which are just changes in pressure traveling in waves
