Q: For most waves, energy is proportional to what, a term that describes the height of the wave?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Light also behaves like a package of energy. It turns out that for light, the energy of the “package” of energy is proportional to its frequency. (For most waves, energy is proportional to wave amplitude, or the height of the wave. ) The mathematical equation that relates the energy (E) of light to its frequency is.

 Choices:

- wave frequency

- wave volume

- wave threshold

- wave amplitude


A:
wave amplitude
