  1. Question 1

    Q1. A wave has an amplitude of 0.5 m and a frequency of 2 Hz. If its amplitude is doubled, what happens to its frequency?

    • A) It doubles
    • B) It remains the same
    • C) It halves
    • D) It becomes zero

    Answer: It remains the same

    Explanation: Amplitude change doesn't affect frequency. So, frequency remains 2 Hz. Option A is incorrect as it confuses amplitude with frequency.
