What happens to the wavelength when you increase the rate of the vibration?

Wavelength and frequency have an inverse relationship. c = lambda x f, so f = c/lambda, where lambda is wavelength, f is frequency, and c is the speed of light in a vacuum. Therefore, when the frequency increases, the wavelength shortens.

What happens to the frequency of the waves when you increase the rate of vibration?
the amplitude increases
The rate of vibration of sound waves is called?
The rate of vibration is called the frequency.
What happens to the wavelength if the sound wave slows down and the frequency dont change?
Wavelength and frequency are locked together in an inverse proportionality. If the frequency of a wave is constant, the wavelength of the wave will be constant. Increase one and the other decreases. Decrease one and the other increases. That said, let's look at the dynamics of a tsunami, which may be the general direction in which this was heading. In a tsunami, the wave moves very quickly in the open ocean, and it has a long wavelength. As it closes on shore, the leading edge of the wave slows down as the sea bottom "rises up" to meet the wave. As the leading edge of the wave continues to slow down, the "rest of the wave" begins to "catch up" with the wave front. This causes the wave to build; its height will increase. The actual wavelength is decreasing (and its frequency will be increasing), and the wave continues to slow down. Higher and higher it will build, and then it will break on the shore and carry inland.
What happens to the wave when you increase the wavelength?
More energy would be transferred in the wave, so a sound wave would get louder and a light wave would get brighter. The wavespeed, frequency, and wavelength of the wave will remain the same.
