What property of sound waves is related to the amplitude of the waves?
Loudness.
What waves have the highest amount of energy?
The waves having the hightest amplitude, then it has the hightest Energy.
How do you increase the energy of waves?
By increasing its amplitude and/or frequency.
Do the energy of a mechanical wave depends on the frequency of the wave?
Yes, energy transfer for mechanical waves is dependant on frequency as well as amplitude. Energy of electromagnetic waves, however, does not rely on frequency but solely on amplitude.
How does a waves energy affect its amplitude?
How is the energy of the wave affected if the amplitude of the wave increases form 2 meters to 4 meters
Why are Love waves and Rayleigh waves more destructive than P-waves and S-waves?
Love and Rayleigh waves are also known as surface waves as they travel along the surface of the earth. As the earth's surface is a free boundary, these surface waves have a larger amplitude than P and S (or body waves)which travel through the earth's interior. The amplitude of a wave is related to the amount of energy it has, where high amplitude waves have more energy! This means that the high amplitude high energy surface waves are capable of transferring more energy into structures or other objects on the surface and so can do more damage.
Are waves that carry more energy closer together?
The physical situation differs, depending on what type of waves you are talking about. In the case of water waves, the energy is mainly related to the wave's amplitude - NOT to its frequency.
When you are comparing the energy of different waves you measure what of the waves?
Amplitude.
What property of sound waves is related to the amplitude of the waves?
Loudness.
What does it mean when a waves amplitude increase?
Amplitude is the measure of a wave's energy; therefore, to increase amplitude, the energy being applied to the waves must be increased.
What waves have the highest amount of energy?
The waves having the hightest amplitude, then it has the hightest Energy.
Waves with the greater amplitudes carry MORE OR LESS energy than waves with smaller amplitudes?
Wave with higher amplitude carry more energy than wave with lower amplitude. For simple consideration, no amplitude is no wave and thus no energy but just a flat surface of water. Wave with amplitude must have higher energy than the no wave.
What does amplitude measure?
Sound energy travels in waves and is measured in frequency and amplitude
How do you increase the energy of waves?
By increasing its amplitude and/or frequency.
Do the energy of a mechanical wave depends on the frequency of the wave?
Yes, energy transfer for mechanical waves is dependant on frequency as well as amplitude. Energy of electromagnetic waves, however, does not rely on frequency but solely on amplitude.
What is the relationship between a wave's amplitude and energy?
The energy and the amplitude are related in such a way that, the greater the amplitude the greater is the energy. The sound pressure amplitude tells about how loud the tone will be.
How does a waves energy affect its amplitude?
How is the energy of the wave affected if the amplitude of the wave increases form 2 meters to 4 meters
