Leo constructs a model featuring two waves with identical amplitudes, as depicted.

Question

Which description MOST effectively contrasts the two waves?

a. Wave B possesses higher energy because it has a higher frequency and a shorter wavelength.
b. Wave B possesses lower energy because it has a lower frequency and a longer wavelength.
c. Wave A possesses higher energy due to its lower frequency and longer wavelength.
d. Wave A has a lower energy level because it has a higher frequency and a shorter wavelength.

Answer 1

b. Wave B possesses lower energy because it has a lower frequency and a longer wavelength.
