Answer 2

Answer:

For the same velocity, the “higher frequency of sound wave” means lower wavelength.

Explanation:

• This is because the velocity of a sound wave remains fixed in a medium but the frequency and wavelength differ and are inversely proportional to each other.

                         Velocity = wavelength $\times$ frequency.

• So, sound waves with ‘higher frequencies’ will have ‘shorter wavelengths’ and those with lower frequencies will have longer wavelengths.
• The “wavelength of the sound wave” can be reduced by increasing its frequency.
