Question

The energy of a wave depends on:

✓

Answer

Amplitude of the wave

Explanation:
The energy of a wave is directly proportional to amplitude square and hence it increases with the increase in the amplitude of the wave.
A wave with greater amplitude will release more energy when it falls back to sea level than a wave of lesser amplitude.
