What would a high amplitude light wave look like?
A high amplitude light wave would appear brighter and more intense compared to a low amplitude light wave. It would have larger fluctuations in its brightness and a stronger visual impact.
How would the wavelength and amplitude of a wave be affected by an increase or decrease in energy?
An increase in energy would generally lead to a decrease in wavelength and an increase in amplitude for a wave. Conversely, a decrease in energy would result in an increase in wavelength and a decrease in amplitude. This is because energy is directly related to the frequency and intensity of a wave, which in turn impacts its wavelength and amplitude.
A waves amplitude is .5 meters if its amplitude increased by 1 meter how much does its energy change?
The energy of a wave is proportional to the square of its amplitude. If the amplitude is initially 0.5 meters and increases by 1 meter, the new amplitude would be 1.5 meters. Hence, the energy would change by (∆A/A)^2 = (1/0.5)^2 = 4 times the original energy.
Why does a wave with a large amplitude carry more energy than one with small amplitude?
It is the same as why an object at higher place had more energy than one on the floor. Energy is the difference of potential, for kinetic energy example it is the height, greater height is greater energy. For the wave, energy could be stored in amplitude and frequency. Low amplitude or no amplitude is no energy and any amplitude higher than the zero amplitude would have more energy.
What is a measure of a waves energy?
the amplitude of a wave shows how much energy it has eg, a smaller voltage ac supply on an oscilloscope would be much smaller than say a higher voltage such as main electrical pylons. if you mean waves at sea then i would presume it would have to be measured in joules as this the standard SI unit for energy.

What is the amplitude of the visible light spectrum?
It is not meaningful to talk about "amplitude of the visible light spectrum". One might think that more intense light would mean greater amplitude of the light wave, but it just means more photons. "Visible light" is made up of photons. A single photon has a certain quantifiable energy, and that energy is discussed in terms of frequency or wavelength. A photon with low frequency (towards the red end of the visible light spectrum, for instance) is less energetic than a photon with high frequency (towards the blue end and beyond). For all intents and purposes, the amplitude of a photon wave-packet could be said to be of "unit amplitude", the amplitude of light.

What is amplitude squared?
Amplitude squared is the amount of energy in a wave. The simplest calculations would be for a string wave.

In science Bob learns that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. If the energy of a wave is 4 J what should he predict as the amplitude of the wave?
If the energy of the wave is 4 J and the energy is directly proportional to the square of the wave's amplitude, the square root of the energy divided by the proportionality constant should give the amplitude. In this case, if the proportionality constant is 1, the amplitude would be 2 units.
If the amplitude of the waves coming from a light bulb decreased what will you expect to happen?
If the amplitude of the waves coming from a light bulb decreases, you would expect the intensity of the light emitted to decrease as well. This would result in the light appearing dimmer to an observer.
Would a small wave or a large wave have more energy?
a large wave because it is built and its structure is stronger.
What happens when the amplitude of a wave becomes smaller?
When the amplitude of a wave becomes smaller, the wave will have less energy and appear quieter or dimmer in the case of sound or light waves respectively. This means the wave will have a lower intensity or volume compared to a wave with a larger amplitude.
If the amplitude of a sound wave is increased by a factor of four how does the energy carried by the sound wave in a time interval change?
If the amplitude of a sound wave is increased by a factor of four, the energy carried by the sound wave in a time interval will increase by a factor of sixteen. This is because energy is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave.
