(1 point)
Responses

shorter wavelength and lower frequency
shorter wavelength and lower frequency

shorter wavelength and greater frequency
shorter wavelength and greater frequency

longer wavelength and greater frequency
longer wavelength and greater frequency

longer wavelength and lower frequency
longer wavelength and lower frequency

1 answer

The response to the comparison of wave B to wave A depends on the specific characteristics or context of the waves being compared. However, in general:

  • Shorter wavelength corresponds to greater frequency.
  • Longer wavelength corresponds to lower frequency.

Given the options provided, if wave B has a shorter wavelength compared to wave A, it must also have a greater frequency.

So, if the question is asking for a statement where wave B has a shorter wavelength compared to wave A and this is what should be selected, the correct response would be:

shorter wavelength and greater frequency.
