The amplitude of the wave determines how much energy it is carrying. A wave with a greater amplitude carries more energy than a wave with a smaller amplitude.

How does energy play a part in matter changing state?

Energy directly relates the the temperature of a substance. The more energy in is proportional to a higher temperature. The inverse is also true. When changing states you must use the formula Q=ML where Q is the energy in Jules, M is the mass in grams and L is the latent heat (fusion or vaporization) of the substance. This determines how much energy is needed to change state.


Which subatomic particle plays the greatest part in determining the propertiesof an element?

Electrons play the greatest part in determining the properties of an element. The number of electrons in the outermost energy level (valence electrons) determines an element's chemical behavior, such as its reactivity and ability to form bonds with other elements.


Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum transfers the most energy?

Any amount of energy, large or small, can be carried aboard any electromagnetic signal, long wavelength or short. The higher the frequency is (shorter the wavelength), the larger is the energy per each "grain" or "quantum" or "photon" of it. But you can always make the beam carry as much energy as you want it to, by simply launching more of those. That just means a higher-power radio transmitter, brighter flashlight, or more-intense X-ray machine.


What is the relationship between the energy a sound has and its volume or loudness?

The energy of a sound wave is directly proportional to its volume or loudness. This means that sounds with higher energy levels will be perceived as louder. The intensity or magnitude of the sound wave determines how loud a sound appears to our ears.


Where is the strongest part of magnetic field in current carrying wire?

The strongest part of the magnetic field in a current-carrying wire is near the wire itself, specifically surrounding the wire in a cylindrical pattern. The strength of the magnetic field decreases as you move further away from the wire.

Which part of the atom moves around the circuit carrying energy?

The part of the atom that moves around the circuit carrying energy is the electron. Electrons are negatively charged particles that can flow through conductive materials, such as metals, when a voltage is applied. Their movement creates an electric current, which is the flow of electrical energy through the circuit.


Is carrying an adjective as well as a verb?

Carrying is a verbal noun (gerund) as well as a verb. Carrying is not an adjective. Examples: Noun: The carrying is the hard part, the shopping is the fun part. (two gerunds) Verb: He was carrying the groceries in for his mom.

What determines the amount and duration of monsoon rains?

Because there is so much moisture in the air, it cannot hold it. This means that there is so much rain. It is also part of altitude!


Most energy transformations produce what form of energy?

In most energy transformations, part of the energy is wasted. Much of the wasted energy is usually converted to heat.

What does it mean when sound waves are reflected of canyon walls?

It means that the sound wave goes toward the canyon wall, and then a wave carrying part of the energy comes back from the canyon wall. The remaining energy will be absorbed or will pass through.
