Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases

Physics

Because their PRODUCT is always the same number ... the wave speed. So if one of them changes, the other one has to change in the opposite direction, in order to keep their product the same.

Explanation:

We know that the number of complete waves formed in 1 sec time is frequency and the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs is wavelength. And we have the formula that

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

or, frequency = velocity / wavelength

Here we can see frequency is directly proportional to velocity and indirectly proportional to wavelength.

So as the wavelength increases frequency decreases and as the wavelength decreases frequency increases.

Hope you understood

What is the density of iron if 5.0 cm3 has a mass of 39.5g
weqwewe [10]

Answer :\rho = 7.9\ g/cm^3

Explanation :

It is given that

Mass of iron, m = 39.5 g

Volume of iron, V = 5\ cm^3

So, density is :

density, \rho =\dfrac{mass}{volume}

\rho =\dfrac{39.5g}{5cm^3}

\rho = 7.9\ g/cm^3

What is the purpose of an experiment design?
Eddi Din [679]
An experimental design is used to assign variables for testing. In contrast to a control design where nothing is changed, the experimental design allows you to test various new inputs to see how they would vary from the original results.

When you rub a plastic rod with fur, the plastic rod becomes negatively charged and the fur becomes positively charged. As a con
Yuri [45]

Answer: C. the rod gains mass and the fur loses mass.

Explanation:Atomic particles have mass. The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton and with exchange exchange of charge this is also factored in. The movement of effect described above is known as the triboelectic charging process—charging by friction—which results in a transfer of electrons between the two objects when they are rubbed together. Plastic having a much greater affinity for electrons than animal fur pulls electrons from the atoms of fur, leaving both objects with an imbalance of charge. The plastic rod would have an excess of electrons and the fur has a shortage of electrons. Having an excess of electrons, the plastic is charged negatively and has more mass. In the same vein, the shortage of electrons on the fur leaves it with a positive charge and consequently with lesser mass.
