Assume that a wave has an amplitude of 1 unit and transports 2 units of energy.

How much energy will the wave transport if its amplitude increases to 4 units?

HELP ME PLEASE!

Answer: 8 units

Explanation: 1 unit = 2 units. That means that a wave transports double the amount of units.

4 units = 8 units because 4 x 2 = 8
