Maddox (given name) Maddox is a mainly male name in use in English speaking countries derived from a Welsh surname meaning son of Madoc.. Madoc or Madog was a legendary Welsh prince who in Welsh folklore sailed to the New World three hundred years before Christopher Columbus. The name means fortunate and is derived from the Welsh word mad.
The energy transported by a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave. This energy-amplitude relationship is sometimes expressed in the following manner. This means that a doubling of the amplitude of a wave is indicative of a quadrupling of the energy transported by the wave.
So a wave of a particular amplitude will transmit more energy per second if it has a higher frequency, simply because more waves are passing by in a given period of time. In fact, in the case of electromagnetic waves like visible light, radio waves, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays, the frequency and amplitude collectively tell you how much energy is stored inside the wave.
