If you notice that the number of waves that go past increases you also find that the distance between each crest is shorter and shorter (narrower and narrower).

What happens to the wavellength of a sound when the frequency increases?

When the frequency of a sound increases, the wavelength decreases. This is because the speed of sound remains relatively constant, so if the frequency (number of oscillations per second) increases, the distance between each wave peak (wavelength) must decrease to maintain a constant speed.


How does the interference pattern change as the wavelength changes?

As the wavelength increases, the interference fringes become more spread out and the distance between them increases. Conversely, as the wavelength decreases, the interference fringes become more closely packed together. The specific pattern will depend on the ratio of the wavelength to the distance between the two slits.


What happens to the force of earths gravity as distance from earth increases?

As we are told by Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the centers of the two objects in question. As a result, the attraction of gravity becomes less, as the distance from Earth increases. Note that since the Earth is quite large, about 4,000 miles in diameter, you are not going to notice a change in gravity if you travel away from the Earth by a small distance, such as you can do by climbing a mountain. You will still be approximately the same distance from the center of the Earth.


What is the relationship between the stength of an electromagnet and the number of turns in the coil?

The strength of an electromagnet is directly proportional to the number of turns in the coil. Increasing the number of turns in the coil increases the magnetic field strength produced by the electromagnet.


The gravitational force between two objects depends on the distance between the objects and each objects?

You're fishing for the answer "mass", but your bait-statement is misleading.The force doesn't really depend on "each" mass. It depends on the productof the two masses. There are a huge number of individual masses that theycould have and still multiply to the same product, and have the same forcebetween them.

As the number of bonds between two carbon atoms increases what decreases?

As the number of bonds between two carbon atoms increases, their bond length decreases. This is due to the increased electron density, which pulls the atoms closer together. Bond strength also increases as the number of bonds between two carbon atoms increases.

Why does not the nucleus attract the atoms from top to bottom in a periodic table?

Down a group, the number of shell increases and the electron enters into a different shell. Hence, the distance between the nucleus and valence electron increases and the nuclear attraction decreases


As you travel down a group the do atomic size increases or decreases?

As you travel down a group on the periodic table, the atomic size increases. This is because each successive element in a group adds a new energy level, or shell, which increases the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, thus increasing the atomic size.


What is the distance between -30 and 18 on a number line?

The distance between these numbers is 48.


What happens to ionization energy as atomic Number increases within a group?

Ionization energy generally decreases as atomic number increases within a group. This is because the distance between the outermost electron and the nucleus increases, resulting in weaker attraction and lower energy required to remove the electron.


What is the distance between -14 and 3 on a number line?

The distance between two points on a number line is found by subtracting the smaller number from the larger number. In this case, the distance between -14 and 3 is calculated as follows: (3 - (-14) = 3 + 14 = 17). Therefore, the distance between -14 and 3 is 17 units.


What is the distance between 0 and a number on a number line?

The number line is scalable, meaning it can be any distance you want.
