The diagram shows two waves. How do the frequencies of the waves compare?
Wave A has a lower frequency because it has a
smaller amplitude.
Wave A has a higher frequency because it has a
shorter wavelength.
The waves have the same frequency because they
have the same wavelength.
The waves have the same frequency because they
have the same amplitude.

Wave A has a higher frequency because it has a shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave and the wave length are related by the following equation:

Velocity (v) = wave length (λ) x frequency (f)

v = λf

If we make frequency (f) the subject of the above equation, we will have:

f = v/λ

Let the velocity (v) be constant.

f = v/λ

f & 1/λ

From the equation above,

We can see that the frequency (f) is inversely proportional to the wavelength (λ).

This implies that a wave with a high frequency, will have a short wavelength and a wave with a short frequency will have a longer wavelength.

Now considering wave A and B in the diagram above,

Wave A will have a higher frequency because it has a shorter wavelength as explained above.
