No if you say drop a heavy rock out of water it would make a loud low bang but in water it makes a higher pitched noise.

A cork floats on the water as a wave passes by What happens to the cork Will the cork's vibrational frequency be related to the water wave's frequency and if so how?

The cork will move up and down with the passing wave, but it will still remain on the surface. The cork's vibrational frequency can be related to the water wave's frequency if the wave causes the cork to vibrate at a similar rate as the wave passing by. This phenomenon is known as resonance, where the cork absorbs energy from the passing wave, causing it to vibrate at the same frequency.


What happens to the wave when you increase the wavelength?

More energy would be transferred in the wave, so a sound wave would get louder and a light wave would get brighter. The wavespeed, frequency, and wavelength of the wave will remain the same.


What will happen to the wavelength of a wave if the frequency is left unchanged?

If the frequency of a wave is left unchanged, the wavelength will also remain constant. Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional, so they always adjust together to maintain the speed of the wave.


What Wave travels at a constant speed how does the frequency change if the wavelength is reduced by factor of 3?

A wave traveling at a constant speed will have its frequency remain the same regardless of the change in wavelength. The wavelength and frequency of a wave are inversely proportional, meaning if the wavelength is reduced by a factor of 3, the frequency would increase by a factor of 3 to maintain a constant speed.


Which physical quantity remain unchanged when light and sound passes through medium?

Its FREQUENCY remains the same. Remember that when sound waves travel from air to water, its frequency remains the same, which is why people do not seem to have higher or lower voices under water. However the amplitude and velocity do change if it is a sound wave.

What happens to the wave length when the frequency of a wave is doubled but the wave speed stays the same?

The wave length would necessarily be one half. The speed would remain the same independent of the frequency.


How do you differentiate FM from PM signal?

A: FM means frequency Modulation meaning the frequency remain the same. pulse modulation the frequency can vary

How is the intelligence signal modulated in the carrier?

If the intelligence signal striking a microphone was doubled in frequency from 1 kHz to 2 kHz with constant amplitude, (fc) would change from 1 kHz to 2 kHz. Because the intelligence amplitude was not changed, however, the amount of frequency deviation above and below fc will remain the same. On the other hand, if the 1 kHz intelligence frequency were kept the same but its amplitude were doubled, the rate of deviation above and below fc would remain at 1 kHz, but the amount of frequency deviation would double.

Is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave will remain the same if its wavelength is increased?

No. The product of (wavelength) times (frequency) of an electromagnetic wave is always the same number ... the speed of the wave. So if one of those quantities increases, then the other one must decrease by the same factor, in order for the product to remain constant.


How the wavelength of waves traveling with the same speed would change if the frequency of the wave increases?

The product of (wavelength) times (frequency) is always the same number ... the speed of the wave. So if either of them changes, the other one changes by exactly the same factor in the other direction, in order for the product to remain coinstant.


Is the number of mole remain same if you add distilled water?

Yes, the number of moles will remain the same as long as the chemical does not react with water.
