    Remains the same

    Explanation:

    The speed of waves of higher and lower frequency both will be same.

    the speed of sound in a medium is constant and independent of it's frequency. Moreover, when the frequency changes wavelength changes accordingly, such that their product remains constant.

    we know that

    υ*λ = constant = velocity

    υ = frequency

    λ = wavelength.
