How can you increase the amount of energy in a wave?

Step-by-step explanation:

One is amplitude, which is the distance from the rest position of a wave to the top or bottom. Large amplitude waves contain more energy. The other is frequency, which is the number of waves that pass by each second. If more waves pass by, more energy is transferred each second.

Answer:

The higher the amplitude, the higher the energy. To summarise, waves carry energy. The amount of energy they carry is related to their frequency and their amplitude.
