The wavelength increases
The wavelength increases

The wavelength decreases.
The wavelength decreases.

The wavelength increases if the speed increases

Answer 1

The correct response is:

The wavelength decreases.

This is because the wavelength and frequency of a wave are inversely related. According to the wave equation \( v = f \lambda \) (where \( v \) is the wave speed, \( f \) is the frequency, and \( \lambda \) is the wavelength), if the frequency increases while the speed remains constant, the wavelength must decrease.
