Answer:

Remains the same

Explanation:

The speed of waves of higher and lower frequency both will be same.

the speed of sound in a medium is constant and independent of it's frequency. Moreover, when the frequency changes wavelength changes accordingly, such that their product remains constant.

we know that

υ×λ = constant = velocity

υ= frequency

λ= wavelength.
