MCQ
If the time period of a wave increases, then its frequency will:
  • A
    Increase
  • Decrease
  • C
    Remain the same
  • D
    First increases then decreases

Answer

Correct option: B.
Decrease
$\text{f}=\frac{1}{\text{T}}$
$f \rightarrow$ frequency
$T \rightarrow$ timeperiod
Frequency is inversely proportional to the time period of the wave.
So when time period increases then the frequency will decrease.
