Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The energy carried by a wave is proportional to its amplitude squared. The larger the strength of the electric and magnetic fields, the more work they can do and the greater the energy the electromagnetic wave carries. A wave's energy is proportional to its amplitude squared (E2 or B2).
