Look at the waves shown below. Rank these waves from highest energy to lowest energy and explain your reasoning.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

rank: b, c, a Waves b and c have high frequencies but wave b has a large amplitude while wave c has a small amplitude. Higher the amplitude, the higher would be the energy. Wave a has a low frequency as well as small amplitude.
