As the amplitude of a mechanical wave increases, which of the following quantities
increases?
A.wavelength
B.frequency
C.energy
D.speed

Respuesta :

.c ...energy

Explanation:

Amplitude does not affect wavelength. It also does not affect wave speed. Amplitude is the energy of the wave measured from the rest position to the top of the crest. A wave with more energy has a higher up crest/ higher amplitude.

As the amplitude of a mechanical wave increases, the quantity which increases is: C. energy.

What is a mechanical wave?

A mechanical wave can be defined as a type of wave that requires a medium for its propagation and it creates a disturbance in the medium. Thus, a good example of mechanical wave is sound wave, which is typically transported in a perpendicular direction.

What is amplitude?

Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of a wave when measured from its equilibrium position. Also, the amplitude of a mechanical wave has no effect on the following:

  • Wavelength
  • Speed
  • Frequency
