Other things being equal, the sound wave with more energy will have a greater amplitude.However, the energy (more precisely, the intensity) also depends on the distance from the source, and on the exact frequency.

How does the loudness or softness of a sound relate to the energy it carries?
Sound has two quantitative qualities that we usually measure and those are amplitude and frequency. So I am asuming you are referring to the loudness and softness as the amplitude quantity. The louder a sound, the more energy it carries. So, a loud sound, using your descriptive terms, has more energy than a soft sound, which has less amplitutde.
What is the energy transformation of megaphone?
Electrical energy gets converted to sound energy. When we speak into the speaker, our sound waves get converted into electrical signals. These signals get amplified and emitted as louder sound. Thus, electrical energy (electrical signals) gets converted into sound energy (amplified/louder sound).
Is shouting a sound energy?
Any sound carries energy.
What does sound carry?
sound carries energy because its a form of energy
What happens to the frequency and Amplitude when you scream?
amplitude increases (louder the sound is, bigger is the amplitude)
Why When a banjo string is plucked hard why does it create a louder sound?
Plucking harder puts more energy into the string's movement, so it moves with a bigger amplitude, producing a louder sound.
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

Can sound energy be louder in water?
Yes.
What is sound louder than?
Amplitude is a measure of the size of sound waves. It depends on the amount of energy that started the waves. Greater amplitude waves have more energy and greater intensity, so they sound louder. As sound waves travel farther from their source, the more spread out their energy becomes.
In general as the energy of a sound wave increases?
the sound gets louder
Why are trucks lauder Then cars?
Trucks are louder than cars because of the bigger engine and more space for the sound waves to travel in, and the torque on a truck is considerably bigger with a bigger exhaust to compensate for it, which all results in a louder sound.

Is shouting a sound energy?
Any sound carries energy.
How does the constructive interference make the orchestra louder?
because the sound waves combine to make a bigger louder wave
What type of energy does an electric amplifier use to produce louder sound?
they use electrical and sound energy
What do bigger vibrations result in?
Hugher pitch
