6. What would happen to the wavelength of a wave if energy is removed from the wave? a. The wavelength would increase because wavelength and energy have an inversely proportional relationship b. The wavelength would decrease because wavelength and energy have a directly proportional relationship c. The wavelength would triple because wavelength has a reverse relationship with energy d. The wavelength would remain the same because energy does not affect wavelength
