What else can I help you with?
How can you double the frequency of a wave if you have control over both the wavelength and the wave velocity?
To double the frequency of a wave, you need to halve either the wavelength or the wave velocity. This is because frequency is inversely proportional to both wavelength and wave velocity. So, if you decrease either the wavelength or the wave velocity by half, the frequency will double.
What would happen to the wavelength of a wave if the frequency is halved?
If the frequency of a wave is halved, the wavelength would double. This is because the speed of the wave remains constant, so by halving the frequency (which is the number of wave cycles per unit time), each wave cycle now covers a longer distance, resulting in a longer wavelength.
If the speed of a wave doubles while the wavelength remains the same what happens to the wavelength?
You actually answered your own question. The wavelength remains the same since it is stated as part of the problem. However, the frequency, which I am betting you are more interested in will double. The frequency is releated to the wavelength and the speed of the wave by the following equation f = v/l where f is the frequency, v is the speed, and l is the wavelength. So if the velocity doubles and the wavelength is constant, then the frequency will double.
What happens to frequency when you double wavelength?
The product of (frequency) times (wavelength) is always the same number. (It happens to be the speed of the wave.) So if one of them doubles, the other one gets decreased by half.
What wave has the greater wavelength?
A radio wave has a greater wavelength compared to a visible light wave.

If a wave is traveling at a certain speed and its frequency is doubled what happens to the wavelength of that wave?
Wavelength = 1/frequency. If you double the frequency, the wavelength drops to half.
What would happen to the wavelength of a wave if the frequency is halved?
If the frequency of a wave is halved, the wavelength would double. This is because the speed of the wave remains constant, so by halving the frequency (which is the number of wave cycles per unit time), each wave cycle now covers a longer distance, resulting in a longer wavelength.
What happens to the wavelenght of a wave when the frequencey of the wave doubled but speed stays same?
Speed = wavelength x frequency, so wavelength = speed / frequency. Therefore, the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency. Double the frequency means half the wavelength.

What happens to the wavelength of a wave that is traveling at a certain speed and its frequency is doubled?
If the frequency becomes double what it was, then the wavelength becomes 1/2 of what it was.
What happens to frequency when you double wavelength?
The product of (frequency) times (wavelength) is always the same number. (It happens to be the speed of the wave.) So if one of them doubles, the other one gets decreased by half.
The distance between two successive peaks on a wave is its?
The distance between successive identical parts of a wave is called the wave length.
How do wavelength and periods relate?
Wavelength*Frequency = Velocity of the wave. or Wavelength/Period = Velocity of the wave.
What wave has the greater wavelength?
A radio wave has a greater wavelength compared to a visible light wave.
What is the distance between a wavelength and a wave dependent on?
The distance between a wavelength and a wave is dependent on the speed of the wave and the frequency of the wave. This relationship is described by the equation: wavelength = speed of the wave / frequency.
How do you calculate the speed of a wave?
you find out a waves speed by taking the wavelength and divide it by it's wave period or how long it takes for the wave to complete a full wavelength. This is what my textbook said. Speed=Wavelength ×Frequency
