Answer on Question #46987, Physics, Optics

The property of light waves that determines its brightness is its

wavelength

velocity

frequency

amplitude

Solution:

Light is an electro-magnetic wave. It is a varying electric and magnetic field that propagates or spreads out from one place to another.

Electromagnetic waves are formed when changing electric and magnetic fields propagate through space.

The amplitude of light waves is directly proportional to the brightness of the light.

Answer: amplitude
