On a violin, the highest note Mandy can play is an A-note, which produces a sound wave with a high frequency. The lowest note she can play is a G-note, which has a low frequency.

How does the wavelength of a G-note sound wave compare to the wavelength of an A-note sound wave?

The G-note's wavelength is the same size.

The G-note's wavelength is shorter.

The G-note's wavelength is longer.

There is not enough information to tell.

I think the answer would be: The G-note's wavelength is longer

Here are the formula to calculate wavelength

Wavelength = Wave speed/Frequency

Which indicates that the wavelength will become larger as the frequency became smaller.
