Analyze the data to identify the mathematical relationship between the
amplitude and energy of a mechanical wave. If mechanical wave A has an
amplitude of 4 cm and mechanical wave B has an amplitude of 5 cm, what
will be the relationship between the energy carried by the two waves?
Amplitude
Energy
A. Wave A has about 1.25 times more energy than wave B.
ОО
B. Wave A has about 1.6 times more energy twan wave B.
C. Wave B has about 1.6 times more energy than wave A.
O D. Wave A has about 1.15 times more energy than wave B.
