Question

Of the waves shown below, which has the most energy? A.BlueB.RedC.GreenD.Gold

Answer 1

The energy of a wave is proportional to its amplitude, according to the formula below:

`E=(1)/(2)\mu\omega^2A^2`

Where A is the amplitude of the wave.

Looking at the image, the wave with the greatest amplitude is the green one.

Therefore the correct option is C.
