Question

The greater the amplitude of a wave, the greater its

Answer 1

The greater the amplitude of a wave, the greater its D) energy

Explanation:

- The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave with respect to the equilibrium position. It is generally indicated with A.

The energy of a wave is proportional to the square of its amplitude:

$E=\propto A^2$

Therefore, we immediately see that option D) is the correct one: the greater  amplitude of the wave, the greater its energy.

The other quantities of a wave are:

- Frequency: it is the number of complete cycles of the wave per second

- Wavelength: it is the distance between two crests of the wave

- Speed: the speed of a wave is calculated using the equation

$v=f \lambda$

where f is the frequency and $\lambda$ is the wavelength.
