As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave the frequency of the wave

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave _decrease__ the frequency of the wave _increase_______.

Explanation:

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. The equation that relates wavelength and frequency is:

V= fλ

where v= velocity

           f= frequency

            λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ  

also f ∝ 1/λ

For electromagnetic radiation, the speed is equal to the speed of light, c, and the equation becomes:

C= fλ

where c= Speed of light

           f= frequency

            λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ  

also f ∝ 1/λ
