Question
regarding the behavior of light, which of the following is true? as wavelength increases, frequency increases. wavelength and frequency have no relationship. as wavelength increases, frequency decreases. as wavelength decreases, frequency decreases.
The speed of light ($c$) is a constant, and the relationship between wavelength ($\lambda$) and frequency ($f$) is given by the formula $c = \lambda f$. Since $c$ is constant, when $\lambda$ increases, $f$ must decrease to maintain the equality, and vice - versa.
