If the wavelength of the wave is increased to 10 meters while maintaining a constant speed of 600 m/s, the frequency would decrease. This is because the relationship defined by the formula \( v_w = f \cdot \lambda \) indicates that if the speed remains unchanged and the wavelength increases, the frequency must decrease to satisfy the equation.
The formula vw=fâ Îť

describes the relationship between the speed of a wave (vw

), and its frequency (f

) and wavelength (Îť

).
For example, if a wave has a frequency of 120 Hz and a wavelength of 5m, it would have a speed of 600 m/s.
In one or two sentences, describe what would happen to the frequency of this wave if the wavelength is increased to 10m but the speed stays the same at 600 m/s.
