The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.

How would you describe the wavelength of a wave with low speed but high frequency?

The wavelength of a wave with low speed but high frequency would be short.


If a wave have long wavelength it has a what frequency?

In that case, it will have a low frequency.


Why sine wave is unstable at low frequency?

The sine wave at low frequency is unstable because it can create strong currents that nobody can stop them from


A wave with a low frequency does it have a short wavelength?

The product of (frequency) x (wavelength) is always the same number ... the speedof the wave. So the lower frequencies must have longer wavelengths.


Does a high frequency wave transmit more energy than a low frequency wave?

No, the energy of a wave is determined by its amplitude, not its frequency. In terms of electromagnetic waves, both high and low frequency waves can carry the same amount of energy per photon. The perceived intensity of a wave is linked to its amplitude, not its frequency.


A wave with low frequency would have relatively?

A wave with low frequency would have a longer wavelength and carry less energy. It would also have fewer oscillations per unit of time compared to a high-frequency wave.


What does the high frequency of a sound wave determine?

The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch. So if there is high frequency it means that the sound will also be high pitched. If it is low frequency that means the sound will be low pitched.


How can you tell by looking at it if a wave has high or low frequency?

High-frequency waves have more waves packed into the same distance compared to low-frequency waves, with shorter distances between wave crests. So, a high-frequency wave appears to have more waves in a given space, while a low-frequency wave looks more stretched out with fewer waves in the same space.


Which relation is there between wavelength and height?

There is no relation between wave length and wave height. You can change the wave height independently from the wave length. Wave height tells you which amplitude the wave has. If you think of sound that means how loud it is. The wave length tells you the pitch or the frequency of this sound, that means high or low sound. Long wavelength means bass sound and short wavelength means treble sound.


Which takes more energy a high frequency wave or a low frequency wave?

A high frequency wave typically requires more energy than a low frequency wave because it carries more oscillations per unit of time. This means that high frequency waves have a higher energy content due to the faster rate of vibration.


Can a low frequency wave have big or small amplitude?

Yes, a low frequency wave can have both big and small amplitudes. The amplitude of a wave refers to the maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position, and this can vary regardless of the frequency of the wave.


A sound with a low pitch always has a low?

I think the answer you seek is frequency. A low pitch equals a low frequency of the sound wave.
