Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other. The wave with the greatest frequency has the shortest wavelength. Twice the frequency means one-half the wavelength. For this reason, the wavelength ratio is the inverse of the frequency ratio.

Is the relationship between frequency and wavelength proportional?
Because the velocity is constant, any increase in frequency results in a subsequent decrease in wavelength. Therefore, wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional.
What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength increase?
The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength gets longer.
What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency write the formula?
The equation that relates wavelength and frequency for electromagnetic waves is: λν=c where λ is the wavelength, ν is the frequency and c is the speed of light.
What is the relationship of wavelength and frequency of an electromagnetic wave?
Section Summary. The relationship among the speed of propagation, wavelength, and frequency for any wave is given by vW = fλ, so that for electromagnetic waves, c = fλ, where f is the frequency, λ is the wavelength, and c is the speed of light.
