MCQ
The energy of a wave depends on:
- ✓Amplitude of the wave
- BPhase of the wave
- CTimbre of the wave
- DShape of the wave
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Amplitude of the wave
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.
A wave with greater amplitude will release more energy when it falls back to sea level than a wave of lesser amplitude.
