C)frequency.
D)wavelength.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The intensity of light is directly related to the square of its amplitude. Increasing the amplitude of a light wave increases the energy it carries per unit area, thereby increasing its intensity. Frequency and wavelength adjustments change the color or type of light but not directly its intensity.
