As we know that frequency and wavelength are dependent on each other

and this is given by


f = (c)/(\lambda)

here we know that


\lambda = wavelength

f = frequency

c = speed of wave

while for energy and intensity of wave we know that

Energy =
KA^2

here A = amplitude of wave

so energy directly depends on amplitude of wave

so correct answer will be

A) Energy
