What affect does decreasing the pitch of the sound have on a wavelength?

Question

anonymous · Answer

I think by decreasing the pitch of a sound it will decrease the frequency of a sound wave.

I just want someone to explain it to me

ayonnaleflore · Answer

you are correct. If the wave frequency decreases the pitch of the sound also decreases

vijeya3 · Answer

You can look at it this way-
Pitch depends upon the frequency>you are correct there that decreasing the pitch would also decrease the frequency
Now we know that -
Wave speed=Frequency * Wavelength.
You have a decreased frequency here,the same speed of the wave(sound) since the speed wouldn't change with a change in the frequency
So,can you ,with the help of the above relation that is wave speed = wavelength*frequency,figure out how the wavelength would be affected?
The wavelength would increase.
I hope this is helpful:)
