How are the wavelength and frequency of a wave related? A.As frequency increases, wavelength increases B.As frequency increases, wavelength decreases C.Wavelength remains constant as frequency changes D.Wavelength and frequency are not related

OpenStudy (abhisar):

What do you think ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its C

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Frequency \(\propto\) Energy \(\large\sf \propto\frac{1}{wavelength}\)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Got it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No I didn't

OpenStudy (abhisar):

That means, Frequency is directly proportional to energy and inversly proportional to wavelength.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

You know the meaning of directly proportional and inversly proportional ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i don't know the meaning

OpenStudy (abhisar):

When i say A is directly proportional to B, it means that A will increase/decrease according to increase/decrease in B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh I get it now

OpenStudy (abhisar):

When i say A is inversly proportional to B, it means A will increase in the same ratio to which B will decrease.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

So now can you tell me the correct option ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

\(\huge\checkmark\)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Well Done !
