Kimberly Watts · Answer 1

Answer: greater amplitude

Explanation:

The greater the amplitude in a wave cycle the more energy the cycle has. Similarly as the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength decreases and the energy also increases.

Valeria Byrd · Answer 2

Answer: Greater Amplitude

Explanation: the greater the amplitude in a wave of cycle the more energy that cycle has. As the frequency of a wave increases the wavelength decreases and the energy increases
