Ike is at the beach watching the waves in the ocean. Ike notices that some of the waves are short. Other waves are very tall and
come up high above the water. Which of these is always true about two waves that are different heights? A. They are made of different materials. B. They are traveling at different speeds. C. They have different wavelengths. D. They have different amplitudes.
Ike is at the beach watching the waves in the ocean. Ike notices that some of the waves are short. Other waves are very tall and come up high above the water. Two waves that are different heights because They have different amplitudes.
Answer: Option (D) is correct
Explanation:
The different heights of the waves are due to their different amplitudes. The Amplitude of a particular wave depends upon the amount of energy being carried by waves. It the waves carry more energy than their amplitude will be higher.
But if energy carried by a wave is less than the wave will have a low amplitude. The Amplitude shows the distance covered from the rest position to peak position.
