Explanation:
A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.
Frequency
Wavelength etc
The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.
Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :
Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength
The answer is true: the pressure of a gas will decrease as temperature decreases in a rigid container.
This is one of the central gas laws called the Gay-Lussac law that states for a given gas at a constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature. We also know that as temperature reduces, so too does molecular interaction. Increased temperature results in increased pressure, and decreased temperature therefore results in decreased pressure.
