what is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
the greater the frequency, the longer the wavelength
the shorter the wavelength, the smaller the frequency
the greater the frequency, the shorter the wavelength
The relationship between frequency ($f$) and wavelength ($\lambda$) is given by the formula $c = f\lambda$, where $c$ is the speed of light (a constant). Rearranging for $f$ gives $f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$. This shows an inverse relationship. As frequency increases, wavelength decreases and vice - versa.
