Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A wave with larger amplitude carries more energy.
A
True
B
Fasle
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This is because it takes more energy to move the rope farther from its rest position. Therefore, a wave with a large amplitude carries more energy than a wave with a small amplitude, as shown in Figure 11. Another property of waves is wavelength.

Detailed explanation-2: -Waves that have larger amplitude have more energy. Waves that have smaller amplitude have less energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
