What happens to a wave when you decrease the wave length?
When you shorten the wave length, you increase the amplitude.
How does increasing the wavelength by 50 percent affect the frequency of a wave on a rope?
it decrease the wave length
What happenes to the wavelength of a wave when the frequncy decreases?
If the waves become less frequent (frequency decreases), assuming the velocity stays the same there must, logically, be more distance between each wave passing. i.e. the length of each wave must be longer. or, put another way, the wave length must have increased if less waves go past.
What is the relationship between length and wave frequency?
Frequency is inversely proportional to the wave length, thus saying the shorter the wave length the higher the frequency and vice versa.The frequency is the number of waves within a time period. As the frequency within that time period increases, the number of waves increases, therefore the width of each wave (wavelength) within that time period has to decrease. Therefore:As the wave length increases, the frequency decreasesAs the wave length decreases, the frequency increases
What happenes to the wave speed as the wavelength increased?
Velocity = Frequency * Wavelength. If the wavelength increases and the frequency stays the same, then the speed of the wave will increase.
What happenes to the temperature as one move from the equator to the poles?
temperatures starts to decrease in degrees and the days get shorter
If the frequency of a wave decrease but the wavelength remains the same what else decrease in the wave?
The velocity decreases. Its the only way.
Is it true as the wave length of electro magnetic wave deacreases the frequency increases?
Yes.(Wavelength) multiplied by (Frequency) is the speed of light.Since their product is always the same, one of them must decrease of the other one increases.
What type of light has a longer wave length ultra violent or infrared?
Ultraviolet has the longer wave length Infrared has the lower wave length
How is a waves frequency related to a waves length?
The product of the wave's frequency and the wave's wave length is equal to the speed of propagation of the wave.
What happens if you change the amplitude or frequency of a sound?
The period would decrease, since the period is simply the reciprocal of the frequency. Also, the wavelength should decrease - since the speed of a wave usually doesn't depend significantly on the frequency, and the wavelength is equal to the speed divided by the frequency.
What is the length of full wave?
The length of a full cycle of a wave is called a "wavelength".
