Why the wavelength is always a bit shorter than the calculated one?

The wavelength of light is slightly shorter when passing through a medium due to the slowing down of light in the medium. The wavefronts are displaced closer together, resulting in a shorter wavelength. This phenomenon is known as wavelength compression.


How do the wavelength and wave height change as a wave enters shallow water?

As a wave enters shallow water, the wavelength decreases while the wave height increases. This happens because the wave encounters the ocean floor, causing the wave to slow down and compress, resulting in a shorter wavelength and higher wave height.


What happens to the frequency when the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave goes up?

As wavelength goes up, the frequency comes down.


What happens to the frequency of a wave when the wavelength is decrased and the wavelength is increased?

When the wavelength (λ) increases, the frequency (v) decreases. When the λ goes down, the v goes up.


Is it bad to break a violin string?

No. It is normal for that to happen. This usually happens if you tighten the string too much or it just wears down.


What happens if the frequenCy of wave and its length increase?

That is impossible. Speed of wave c = frequency f times wavelength λ. To have a constant speed, the frequency goes up and the wavelength goes down or the frequency goes down and the wavelength goes up.


How is a higher note produced on a single string of a stringed instrument?

By pressing down the string at some point on the neck (fretboard) so that the length of the string that vibrates becomes shorter, therefore producing a higher pitched note.


What are the factors that affect the sound of a vibrating guitar strings?

The factors of the sound of a guitar string are tuning the string (changes the tension; the tighter the higher) and pressing down on the fret (changes amount of string that vibrates; the shorter the higher)


What happens if someone puts a syringe connected to a string down your throat?

You shouldn't do that. Its sounds dangerous


What happens and what could the pen's motion if the string cut with a pair of scissors?

If a wave's wave length increases what happens to its frequency?

It goes down. Wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency
