Doubling the frequency of a sound source while the speed of sound remains constant in the medium results in halving the wavelength, as wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency (λ = v/f, where λ is wavelength, v is speed of sound, and f is frequency).

When the Frequency of a Source Is Doubled,the Sound Produced
