The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency.
(The proportionality constant is Planck's Konstant.)
If one photon has double the wavelength of another, then its frequency is
1/2 the frequency of the other one, and its energy is also half.

Doubling the amplitude of a wave causes its energy to .?
quadruple
How is the amplitude of a wave related to the wave?
Energy content of the wave is dependent on the amplitude of the wave
What controls the amplitude of a wave?
wellllll energy of the wave controls the amplitude of a wave
A wave with high amplitude?
Has more energy than a wave with low amplitude.
How does the amplitude affect the energy of a wave?
The intensity will increase if the energy increase. The intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude of a wave.

How is the energy of a wave relate to its amplitude?
wavelength is the distance from the peak of one wave to the peak of the next. In this diagram, the wavelength is measured from crest to crest, but the wavelength could be measured from trough to trough as well.A wave's amplitude is the maximum distance that a wave vibrates from its resting position. In a transverse wave, this means that the amplitude of the wave is the highest or lowest point. In a longitudinal wave, the amplitude is the maximum distance the wave travels back or forth. The more energy the wave has, the larger the amplitude will be.
What happens to the energy in a seismic wave as the wave grows larger?
As the amplitude of a wave increases, the energy increases. In general terms the energy transported by a wave is proportional to the amplitude squared.
What happens to the amplitude of the wave if the energy increases?
what happens to the amplitude of a wave when the energy increases
How does the amplitude affect the energy of a wave?
The intensity will increase if the energy increase. The intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude of a wave.
What is the relationship between the amplitude and the height of the wave?
amplitude is equal to one half of the wave height the greater the energy of the wave the greater its amplitude
How many value of amplitude are there in one wavelength of a wave and how is the amplitude related to the energy of a wave?
-- Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. Their product is constant, and is the speed of the wave. They're entirely unrelated to amplitude or energy. -- A wave with greater amplitude carries more energy than one with smaller amplitude does. -- IF your wave happens to be an electromagnetic one, THEN the energy carried by each quantum is proportional to the frequency.
Why a sound wave with a large amplitude is more likely to damage your hearing than one with a small amplitude?
Because the amplitude is what decides how much energy there is in the wave. Large amplitude = lots of energy. And lots of energy hitting something(like your ear) is more likely to do damage than a little energy hitting something.
What does the energy of a mechanical wave depend on?
In fact, energy of the wave is one interpretation of a wave's amplitude. Many versions of amplitude exist. If amplitude has a specific meaning and a specific unit...it needs to be specified. Some examples are displacement amplitude, energy amplitude, pressure amplitude, restoring force amplitude, intensity, decibel level, etcetera.
