Where might you see a light wave with a large amplitude? why?

A light wave is important because it tells about the intensity or brightness of a light relative to another light wave of the same wave length. It is a measure of how much energy the wave carries.

One place you may find a high amplitude light wave is light that comes from studio lights, because a light wave amplitude tells about the intensity or brightness of a light relative to another light wave of the same wavelength.

the aurora is formed when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare penetrate the earth's magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. these collisions result in countless little bursts of light, called photons, which make up the aurora.

auroras are generated by charged solar particles hitting molecules in earth's atmosphere. this usually happens in high latitudes, because our planet’s magnetic field tends to funnel these particles toward the poles. that’s why it can be experienced in northern ohio.
