How is the wave length of a wave related to the amount of energy transferred by the wave?

The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher the frequency of the wave, thus more energy is transferred by the wave. This relationship is described by the equation E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is frequency.


What is the amount of energy transferred by a wave related to?

The amount of energy transferred by a wave is related to its amplitude and frequency. Waves with higher amplitudes and frequencies carry more energy.


What do you call energy transferred as an electromagnetic wave?

I would call it an electromagnetic wave, or electromagnetic energy.


The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is energy?

kinetic


When sound travels is transferred by the sound wave?

It is called frequency


What is transferred by a water wave?

Energy is transferred by a water wave as it moves through the water. This energy causes the particles of water to oscillate in a circular motion as the wave passes, transmitting kinetic energy from one particle to the next.


When the energy of a sound wave is transferred to a particle of a medium and causes it to vibrate and generate heat the sound wave is?

Reflected


When energy of a sound wave is transferred to a particle of a medium and causes it to vibrate and generate heat the sound wave is?

Reflected


A wave whose energy travels the same way as it was transferred?

A transverse wave is a type of wave where the disturbance moves perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. This means that the energy travels in the same direction as it was transferred. Examples of transverse waves include light waves and electromagnetic waves.


What is the height of the distance of the wave related to the amount of energy transferred by a wave through its medium?

The height of a wave (amplitude) is directly related to the amount of energy transferred by the wave. Waves with greater amplitude carry more energy than waves with smaller amplitudes. This is because the energy of a wave is proportional to the square of its amplitude.


What does the velocity of a wave measur e?

The velocity of a wave measures how quickly the wave travels in a given direction. It is the rate at which the wave's energy is transferred from one point to another in a medium.


What happens to the amplitude of a wave when the wave is being absorbed?

When a wave is being absorbed, its amplitude decreases as energy is transferred to the absorbing medium. This results in a reduction of the wave's intensity and amplitude as it loses energy.
