Answer:

OPTION D (The waves will sometimes get very high and very low) is the answer.

Explanation:

Wavelength = velocity ÷ frequency

As the frequency which measures the number of waves per unit of time is inversely proportional to the wavelength, point X which lies between two sources, and one source is shorter than another, the wave heights at point x will vary as the distances from point X vary too. This means that waves at point X depending on the wave type and source will get very high at times and very low.

Ahat [919]
The relationship of the speed of sound, its frequency, and wavelength is the same as for all waves: vw = fλ, where vw is the speed of sound, f is its frequency, and λ is its wavelength. ... The frequency is the same as that of the source and is the number of waves that pass a point per unit time.
