longer wavelength and greater frequency
longer wavelength and greater frequency

shorter wavelength and lower frequency
shorter wavelength and lower frequency

shorter wavelength and greater frequency
shorter wavelength and greater frequency

Answer 1

To determine the relationship between two waves labeled A and B, we need to analyze their wavelength and frequency.

- If wave B has a **longer wavelength**, it means that its frequency must be **lower** (since wavelength and frequency are inversely related).
- Conversely, if wave B has a **shorter wavelength**, it would imply that its frequency is **greater**.

Since we don’t have specific information about the characteristics of waves A and B, I can’t provide a definitive answer as to which of the options is correct without additional context. However, keeping in mind the properties of waves:

- If wave B has a longer wavelength compared to wave A, it will have a lower frequency.
- If wave B has a shorter wavelength compared to wave A, it will have a higher frequency.

If you can provide additional details about waves A and B, I can give you a more accurate answer. Otherwise, based on common relationships in waves, if your context is that wave B is longer in wavelength than A, the correct choice is:

**longer wavelength and lower frequency**.
