Responses
Wave energy increases with frequency and decreases with wavelength.
Wave energy increases with frequency and decreases with wavelength.
Wave energy decreases as the wave moves closer to shore.
Wave energy decreases as the wave moves closer to shore.
The greater the wavelength, the more kinetic energy the wave has.

The correct response regarding the relationship between an ocean wave and the energy of that wave is:
**Wave energy is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave.**
In ocean waves, the energy is related to the wave's amplitude, which means that larger waves (higher amplitude) carry more energy.
**Wave energy is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave.**
In ocean waves, the energy is related to the wave's amplitude, which means that larger waves (higher amplitude) carry more energy.
