high to low if im not mistaken

Challenge Question: How will increasing the frequency change the wavelength?

OpenStudy (kva1992):

it is a linear relationship. Increase wavelength, decrease frequency. Wavelength is a measure of the wave from peak to peak on one oscillation Frequency is the number of oscillations per second

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wait. if the frequency increases then the wavelength decreases?

OpenStudy (kva1992):

correct

OpenStudy (kva1992):

its like 2.4ghz network connection vs 5.0ghz 2.4 can cover a much larger area vs 5.0 which is much shorter due to the frequency difference

ok ty :D

OpenStudy (kva1992):

not sure if you understood that lol
