Which of the following is an effect of increasing the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave?
Increasing the wavelength results in decreasing the frequency and decreasing the energy.
What happens to the wave when you decrease the wavelength or increase the wavelength?
By decreasing wavelength, its energy and as well as frequency increases.
How does changing the frequency of the wave affect wavelength?
The wavelength changes inversely with the frequency.
How does increasing the amplitude affect the wavelength of a wave?
It doesn't. Amplitude and wavelength are independent variables.
How does the amount energy affect the size of the wavelength?
Energy does not effect WAVELENGTH, it effects the AMPLITUDE of the Wave.

Does the amplitude affect on the wavelength or wave speed?
No, the amplitude of a wave does not affect the wavelength or wave speed. The wavelength is determined by the frequency of the wave, while the wave speed is determined by the medium through which the wave is traveling. Amplitude simply represents the maximum displacement of particles in the wave.
How does changing the frequency of a wave affect its wavelength?
It causes the wavelength to shorten
What happens to the wavelength of a wave that slows down while retaining its original frequency?
As the basic formula of all types of waves is (Velocity of a wave=the product of the wavelength of it and its frequency). In this case, frequency of a certain wave is constant and the velocity is decreasing. And as the velocity is directly proportional to the wavelength, the wavelength of the wave shortens as a result.

The wavelength changes inversely with the frequency.

It doesn't. Amplitude and wavelength are independent variables.

Energy does not effect WAVELENGTH, it effects the AMPLITUDE of the Wave.
How frequence affect the wavelength of a wave?
i dont know either.
How does wavelength affect the frequency of a wave?
i dont know either.
Does the frequency or wavelength of the wave affect its speed?
The speed of a wave depends only on the mechanical or electrical characteristics of the medium or environment through which the wave propagates. It doesn't depend on the wave's frequency or wavelength.
How does increasing the wavelength by 50 percent affect the frequency of a wave on a rope?
it decrease the wave length
