You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

To increase the frequency, you decrease the wavelength.
To increase the amplitude, you increase the energy motion.

hope that helps.

The answer to your question really depends on what type of wave you are talking about. Are we talking about electromagnetic radiation? If we are then to increase frequency you must decrease wavelength. To increase amplitude you increase the power of the light.

If you are talking about mechanical waves (on a string, transverse), the same basic principal applies. To increase frequency you decrease wavelength and to increase power you vibrate the string harder. Now, if you are talking about STANDING waves on a string (think guitar string), you can also increase frequency by increasing tension or decreasing the length of the string. You can also decrease the linear mass density of the string. (Pull a string tighter, makes higher pitched note. Make it shorter, makes higher pitched note, use a lighter string, makes higher pitched note).

If this doesn't answer your question, please elaborate.

IF YOU INCREASE THE FREQUENCY THEN WAVE LENGTH WILL BE DECREASES AND IF YOU INCREASE THE AMPLITUDE THEN ENERGY WILL ALSO BE INCREASES AND VISE VERSA

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but here are some physics facts. As frequency increases, the wavelength decreases. Also the amplitude increases as the energy of the wave increases.
