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 happens when electromagnetic waves hit an object?

When electromagnetic waves hit an object, they can be absorbed, transmitted, reflected, or scattered. The interaction between the waves and the object will depend on the material properties of the object and the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.

What happens when the wavelength of electromagnetic waves decreases?

When the wavelength of electromagnetic waves decreases, the frequency of the waves increases. This means that the waves carry more energy and are more powerful. Lower wavelengths are associated with higher energy electromagnetic radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays.


How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?

Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
