The more energy a wave carries the greater its what is?
Frequency
Which property of a mechanical waves is determined by the energy that the wave carries?
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.
A wave is created by moving a rope up and down the energy is increased but not he speed of the motion What will happen to the wave?
The amplitude of the wave increases.
A wave's amplitude is 0.5 meters If its amplitude is increased to 1 meter how much does its energy change?
To, find the energy that the first wave carries. This is given by: 2(A^2), where A is the amplitude of the function. Your first wave is: 2(0.5)^2 = 2(.25) = 0.5, so its energy is 1/2. Compare that to the energy of A=1 m: 2(1)^2 = 2(1) = 2 The energy increased by a factor of 2^2 (that is, 4), so we take the difference: dE = E[final] - E[initial] dE = 2 - 0.5 = 1.5 Energy of the 2nd wave (probably sinusoidal as a guess) is greater by 1.5 J.
A sound wave that carries a lot of energy and has a large amplitude has a lot of?
A sound wave that has a large amplitude carries a lot of energy because the higher the waves amplitude the louder (more powerful or energetic) the wave will be. apex answer: high amplitude
Which property of a mechanical wave is determined by the energy that the wave carries?
Height OR amplitude.
The more energy a wave carries the greater its what is?
Frequency
The height of a wave or the amount of the wave carries is the amplitude?
the answer is : energy

What would happen to a sound wave if the energy increased?
It becomes louder. The amplitude of the sound wave increases
A wave is created by moving a rope up and down the energy is increased but not he speed of the motion What will happen to the wave?
The amplitude of the wave increases.
What indicates the amplitude of the wave?
The amplitude of a compressional wave, like a sound wave, is determined by the concentration of molecules in each compression. The higher the amplitude, or energy that a wave carries, the more compact the molecules are in a compression. The lower the amplitude, the more spread out those particles are. the amplitude of a compressional wave,like a sound wave,is determined by the contretration of waves in a compression
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 is the direct measure of energy from mechanical wave?
Amplitude is the direct measure of energy from a mechanical wave.=Waves are produced by something (a medium) vibrating. The farther the medium moves as it vibrates, the larger the amplitude of the resulting wave. For example, you can increase the amplitude of a wave on a rope by moving your hand up and down a greater distance. To do this you have to use more energy. The energy is transfered to the rope. The greater amplitude is a direct measure of the increased energy.=
