Respuesta :

Answer: Option C. Is the correct answer.

Explanation: Wave length is the distance between the crest of each wave. If you were to decrease it you would be decreasing the distance between each wave therefore making it smaller and closer together as option C. shows.

Andrew asks his sister to shake the rope so the wavelength of the wave decreases. the diagram C shows the correct wave that his sister makes.

What is wavelength?

  • Wavelength is the distance between identical points (adjacent crests) in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space or along a wire. In wireless systems, this length is usually specified in meters (m), centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm).
  • In physics, the wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.
  • The wavelength is calculated from the wave speed and frequency by λ = wave speed/frequency, or λ = v / f. A peak is the highest point of a wave, while the valley is the lowest point of a wave.

Diagram C is the correct representation of the shorter wave length.
