Answer:

The energy will be increased by a factor 16

Explanation:

Mathematically, we have it that the energy carried by the sound wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude

So we have it that;

E = k * A^2

where E is the wave energy

K is the constant value

A is the amplitude value

So;

If E1 = k * (A1)^2

E2 = k * (A2)^2

But A2 = 4A1

E2 = k * (4A1)^2

E2 = k * 16(A1)^2

Divide E2 by E1

E2/E1 = k/k * 16(A1)^2/(A1)^2

E2/E1 = 16

E2 = 16 * E1

so simply, the energy will be increased by a factor of 16

How many planets are there?
beks73 [17]
Hi there!

Assuming you're asking about the solar system, there are nine planets. But, if you're wanting to know about the universe, there are trillions and trillions of planets (most of which we haven't yet discovered). 

Hope this helps!
