Answer:

The energy increases by a factor of 1.2.

Explanation:

The energy (<em>E</em>) of an ocean wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude (<em>A</em>).

<em>E</em> ∝ <em>A</em>² or <em>E = kA</em>²

If you have two waves with amplitudes <em>A</em>₁ and <em>A</em>₂, then

\frac{E_{2} }{E_{1} } = \frac{A_{2}^{2} }{A_{1}^{2} } = (\frac{A_{2} }{A_{1} }})^{2}

If <em>A</em>₂ = 1.1<em>A</em>₁, then

E_{2} = E_{1} \times (\frac{1.1A_{1} }{A_{1} })^{2} = (1.1)^{2} = 1.2

The energy increases by a factor of 1.2.
