Question

The picture below shows sound waves in different colors. Pick the color of the sound wave which is of the highest frequency. 
Inserting image...

  1. Purple
  2. Blue
  3. Red
  4. Yellow

hintHint:

The maximum number of cycles of waves are present in purple

The correct answer is: Purple


    • The total number of waves produced in one second is called the frequency of the wave.
    • In the given sound waves, frequency is minimum for red and maximum for purple.
    • So, the correct option is a.
