Answer: (C)
The frequency increases as the wavelength decreases
Explanation:
The relation between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is
Frequency = 1 / Wavelength
The Frequency of electromagnetic wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength. So, as the frequency increases, the wavelength of the wave decreases and vise-versa.
The frequency of a wave is number of complete cycles passing a particular point per second. Its S.I unit is Hertz whereas the wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive crest and trough in meters.
So, on increasing the frequency of a wave, there will be more number of the cycles of wave per second which will decrease the distance between the consecutive crest and trough i.e wavelength.
This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.
It uses the voltages and sound freq. in the air to measure the wave lengthths
