If a frequency of a wave increases what will happen?

Increase decrease. The frequency MUST decrease.


The pitch you hear is related to the of a sound wave?

The frequency


How can you decrease the wavelength of a transverse wave?

Speed (of the wave) = wavelength x frequency. You normally can't do much about the speed, but if you increase the frequency, you'll decrease the wavelength.


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.


How can you obtain a wave with a higher frequency?

decrease wavelength


If the of a wave increases its frequency must decrease.?

period


How does increasing the wavelength by 50 percent affect the frequency of a wave on a rope?

it decrease the wave length


When the frequency of a wave increases the energy will?

If the power is constant, the amplitude will decrease.


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.


As the speed of a particle increases does its associated wavelength increase or decrease?

The wavelength of waves travelling with the same speed would decrease if the frequency of the waves increases. This is because, speed of a wave is the product of the distance of the wavelength times the frequency of the wave. The velocity of a wave is usually constant in a given medium.


If the wavelength of a given wave decreases you know that its frequency will stay the same true or false?

False. An increase in frequency means a decrease in the wavelength and a decrease in frequency goes with an increase in the wavelength.


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.
