If a large number of waves pass by a certain point in a given time, the waves have a low frequency. none of the above. a high frequency. it doesn't affect frequency.

Another term used to describe a wave is frequency. Since waves are moving, we define frequency as the number of waves that pass a given point in a specified unit of time. The unit commonly used is Hertz which is the number of wave cycles pass a point in one second. So one cycle per second equals one Hertz
