V=f *lambda where v = wave speed, f=frequency and lambda= wavelength.

Frequency increase as the energy of a wave increases because E=hf where h is a constant so E/h=f. if E increase f has to increase.

Wavelength decreases because if the frequency increases the wavelength would also have to decrease as v/f=lambda. Therefore the larger the frequency is the smaller the wave lengthen will be.

How do you change the pitch sound?

Adjust the wavelenght! The higher frequencies have shorter wavelengths, and lower frequencies have longer wavelengths. Basically, the longer the wavelength, the lower the pitch.


How do wavelength and frequencies change as it move down?

As you move down the electromagnetic spectrum, the wavelength decreases and the frequency increases. This means that shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies, and vice versa. For example, radio waves have long wavelengths and low frequencies, while gamma rays have short wavelengths and high frequencies.


What results from wavelengths and frequencies of light and sound?

Different wavelengths and frequencies of light are interpreted as different colours; those of sound are interpreted as pitch.


If colors have different wavelengths do they have different frequencies and temperatures?

Yes, light is electromagnetic waves. The longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies and the lowest temperatures. The shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies and the highest temperatures.


Is it better to have high Wavelengths or low Wavelengths?

It depends on the context. In terms of light, shorter wavelengths (higher frequencies) have more energy, while longer wavelengths (lower frequencies) have lower energy. In terms of sound, shorter wavelengths (higher frequencies) are perceived as higher pitched, while longer wavelengths (lower frequencies) are perceived as lower pitched.


Do waves with the shortest wavelength have the slowest frequencies?

No, waves with shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies. The wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, meaning shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies.

Is it true that waves with the shortest wavelength have the lowest frequencies?

No, this statement is not true. Shorter wavelengths are actually associated with higher frequencies, while longer wavelengths are associated with lower frequencies. Wavelength and frequency are inversely related in a wave, such as in the electromagnetic spectrum where gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies.


Since the different kinds of waves have different lengths they also have different?

frequencies. Shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies, while longer wavelengths correspond to lower frequencies. This relationship is described by the formula: frequency = speed of light / wavelength.


Does the frequenciesof the colors of light increase from red to violet?

Yes, the frequencies of light increase from red to violet. Red light has lower frequencies and longer wavelengths, while violet light has higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. This is due to the relationship between frequency and wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.


How does the energy associated with waves change as wavelength change?

As wavelength decreases, the energy associated with the waves increases. This is because shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies, which means each wave carries more energy. Conversely, longer wavelengths have lower frequencies and thus carry less energy.


Are infrared raise shorter than ultraviolet rays?

No, infrared waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to ultraviolet rays, which have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies.
