As the wavelength of a wave increases, the frequency **decreases**. This relationship is described by the equation:
\[
v = f \lambda
\]
where:
- \( v \) is the speed of the wave,
- \( f \) is the frequency,
- \( \lambda \) is the wavelength.
If the speed of the wave remains constant, an increase in wavelength \( \lambda \) leads to a decrease in frequency \( f \).
\[
v = f \lambda
\]
where:
- \( v \) is the speed of the wave,
- \( f \) is the frequency,
- \( \lambda \) is the wavelength.
If the speed of the wave remains constant, an increase in wavelength \( \lambda \) leads to a decrease in frequency \( f \).
