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 velocity of a wave with a frequncy of 6 H and a wavelength of 2 m?
The velocity would be determined by the kind of wave. Sound or electromagnetic. Not by its frequency or wavelength.
What happens to the speed of a wave if the frequency decreases and the waveleNgth increases?
the wave decreases.
What happens to the wavelength of a wave when the frequency of the wave is doubled?
the wavelength of the wave get smaller, decreases because the frequency is doubled, increasing..vise versa.
What happens to a wave's wavelength when its frequency increases?
The wavelength decreases since they are inversely proportional.
When the wavelength of a wave increases the frequency?
decreases. they are inversely proportional.
What is the velocity of a wave with a frequncy of 6 H and a wavelength of 2 m?
The velocity would be determined by the kind of wave. Sound or electromagnetic. Not by its frequency or wavelength.
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 decreases as the frequency of a sound wave increases?
Wavelength.
What happens to the speed of a wave if the frequency decreases and the waveleNgth increases?
the wave decreases.
What happens when the frequency of a wave increases?
The wave's wavelength decreases correspondingly.
As the frequency of a wave increases what happens to the wavelength?
As wavelength increases the frequency decreases.
Does the frequincy of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases?
Yes.
What happens to the wavelength of a wave when the frequency of the wave is doubled?
the wavelength of the wave get smaller, decreases because the frequency is doubled, increasing..vise versa.
What happens to a wave's wavelength when its frequency increases?
The wavelength decreases since they are inversely proportional.
When the wavelength of a wave gets higher what happens to the frequency or speed?
When the wavelength of a wave gets higher the speed decreases. This is a studied in science.
What part of a wave increases and its frequency decreases?
Try "wavelength".
When the wavelength of a wave increases the frequency?
decreases. they are inversely proportional.
