What happens to an electromagnetic wave's frequency as it's wavelength decreases?

The product of (wavelength) x (frequency) of any wave phenomenon is alwaysthe same number ... the speed of the wave. So if wavelength changes, thenfrequency must change by exactly the same factor in the opposite direction,in order for their product to remain constant.


What did you observe with the product of wavelength and frequency for each color what is the significance of this value?

The product of wavelength and frequency for each color of light is a constant value equal to the speed of light. This relationship is described by the equation c = λν, where c is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength, and ν is the frequency. This constant value is significant because it demonstrates the inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency in electromagnetic radiation.


Is it true that The higher the frequency of the electromagnetic wave the shorter its wavelength?

Yes, that is true. In general, there is an inverse relationship between frequency and wavelength for electromagnetic waves. As the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases. This relationship is described by the equation speed = frequency * wavelength, where speed is a constant for a given medium.


How is frequency wavelength and wave speed related?

The product of (wavelength) x (frequency) is always equal to the wave's speed.


As the speed of a particle increases does its associated wavelength increase or decrease?

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.

Does A sound wave has a speed which is mathematically related to the frequency and the wavelength of the wave?

Yes - The speed is equal to the product of the frequency and wavelength,but you have to be careful how you think about that. The speed doesn't dependon the frequency or wavelength.

They differ in wavelength. This is equivalent to saying that they differ in frequency, because the product of (wavelength) x (frequency) is always the same number ... the speed of the wave.

How is wavelength related to frequency for waves moving at a constant speed?

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional for waves moving at a constant speed. This means that as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases, and vice versa. The product of wavelength and frequency is always equal to the speed of the wave.
