The frequency changes, as the speed of light c is always constant (299 792 458 meters /s).
For example; your favorite radio station frequency might change from 99.8 FM to 95.4 FM if the pitch was lowered, as the speed is unchanging.
Or, if the wavelength for the color blue was heightened in pitch over time, the color blue might appear to shift through the rainbow to red, infrared and beyond. In Astronomy, we see this all the time, it's called Redshift. very distant galaxies and stars appear to move away from us so fast, their light reaches us 'squashed together', and their light appears more red the further they are from our telescopes.

What is the reason for ultrasonic waves not being in the form of electromagnetic waves?
Ultrasonic waves are high frequency sonic waves. They're sound, which is mechanical energy. Electromagnetic waves are waves of electromagnetic energy, like radio waves or light. Mechanical energy is different from electromagnetic energy, hence the reason for ultrasonic waves not taking the form of electromagnetic waves.
Sound is not part of the electromagnetic spectrum because?
because sound waves are not a electromagnetic waves because they need a medium for travel....hence electromagnetic spectrum is based on the electromagnetic waves ..like radio waves , micro waves , etc....
The energy of visible light transported by electromagnetic waves are what type of waves?
electromagnetic waves are longitudinal (like a slinky).
Which is not a type of electromagnetic wave?
Sound waves aren't an electromagnetic wave. So aren't seismic waves. So aren't waves in the ocean, in your hair, or waves bye-bye.
What kinds of waves make up the electromagnetic spectrum?
Those are called electromagnetic waves.
What happens when transverse electromagnetic waves encounter cavity?
light waves or electromagnetic waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal
What happens to the direction of electromagnetic waves in media?
The direction of electromagnetic waves in media goes all willey nilley.
What happens to the wavelength of electromagnetic waves as they travel through a denser medium?
The waves become smaller.
When an object creates more electromagnetic waves what happens to the wavelength?
nothing
What happens when electromagnetic waves hit an object?
The Moon Perpendicular to the sun
Are the sun's rays mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
What happens when electromagnetic waves encounter matter?
The waves are passed thru the matter or reflected by the matter or absorbed by the matter.
What happens to the energy carried by electromagnetic waves as the wavelength gets shorter?
energy
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
How are electromagnetic waves transfered?
Electromagnetic waves are transferred by electromagnetic radiation.
What is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves?
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
Are suns rays mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
