The formula v = f A describes the relationship between the speed of a wave (v), and its frequency (f) and wavelength (A).
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.

If the wavelength is increased to 10m but the speed stays the same at 600 m/s, the frequency of the wave would decrease to 60 Hz.
