Question

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

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.
use the formula vw=f⋅λ to show your calculations for the frequency

If the wavelength is increased to 10m while the speed of the wave remains at 600 m/s, the frequency of the wave would decrease from 120 Hz to 60 Hz, according to the formula vw=f⋅λ.
