Waves Which wave has the higher amplitude?
Waves Which wave has the higher amplitude? Amplitude is a measure of how tall a wave is so wave B has more amplitude. Drop of a Bullet
Waves Which wave a softer sound? Drop of a Bullet
Waves Which wave a softer sound? Wave A because it has a lower amplitude. Remember, the amplitude of a wave determines the energy and loudness of the sound. Drop of a Bullet
Forces and Motion Which wave has a longer wave length? Drop of a Bullet
Waves Which wave has a longer wave length? There is more distance between crests of B than A, so B has the longer wavelength. Drop of a Bullet
