Question

A wave with a greater amplitude will transfer . . . . \

less energy.
more energy.
less mass.
more mass.

Answer 1

More energy

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave itself. In particular, the amount of energy carried by the wave is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave:

`E \propto A^2`

where

E is the energy

A is the amplitude

This means, for instance, that if the amplitude of a wave is doubled, the energy it carries increases by a factor 4.
