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.

∙ 15y agoIf you're referring to the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation, the speed remains the same regardless of the wavelength. The speed, of course, is the speed of light.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoThe speed does not change. The product of wavelength and frequency equals the speed. If the wavelength increases the frequency decreases.
Wiki User
∙ 6y agoThe speed of a wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the frequency (speed = wavelength/frequency). So if the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength will decrease.

When the frequency of a waveform increases does the wavelength increase or decrease?
decreases
What happens to the wave when you decrease the wavelength or increase the wavelength?
By decreasing wavelength, its energy and as well as frequency increases.
What property of a wave increases as the waves energy inceases?
An increase in energy corresponds to an increase in frequency or a decrease in wavelength.
What property of a wave increases as the waves energy increases?
When energy increases, the frequency increases.Source(s):my brain7th grade science textbook
Why does the frequency of a wave decrease while the wavelegth increases?
Multiplication of wavelength and frequency is equal to velocity of the wave.It is a constant in a medium.So wavelength and frequency is indirectly propotinal.One should increase if other decrease to maintain the constant velocity.

How the wavelength traveling with the same speed would change if the frequency of the waves increase?
The speed of a wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the frequency (speed = wavelength/frequency). So if the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength will decrease.
How would the wavelength of waves traveling with the same speed change if the frequency of the waves increase?
The speed of a wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the frequency (speed = wavelength/frequency). So if the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength will decrease.

What happens as the frequency of photons increases?
For electromagnetic radiation,c = speed of light = 3.0 x 108 m/s = frequency x wavelengthAs the frequency of light waves increase, the wavelength decreases. For electromagnetic radiation, the wavelength times the frequency equals the speed of light, c, which is 3.0 x 108 m/s. So, if the frequency increases, the wavelength will decrease, and if the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases.
