Answer:

C is halved

Explanation:

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

[tex]v=f\lambda[/tex]

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

From the equation above, we see that for a given wave, if the wave is travelling in the same medium (and so, its speed is not changing), then the frequency and the wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.

Therefore, if the frequency doubles, the wavelength will halve in order to keep the speed constant:

[tex]\lambda = \frac{v}{f}\\\lambda' = \frac{v}{f'}=\frac{v}{2f}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{v}{f})=\frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]
