Dear Mohan The Intensity of waves (called Irradiance in Optics) is defined as the power delivered per unit area. The unit of Intensity will be W.m-2. The wave energy comes from the simple harmonic motion of its particles. The total energy will equal the maximum kinetic energy

Wave intensity is the average power that travels through a given area as the wave travels through space. The intensity of sound waves is measured using the decibel scale. Let`s talk about wave intensity; intensity is a word that we use to describe how much energy is associated with a periodic wave.

dear mohan wave intensity defined as the average rate of traion transfere  of energy per unit surface area perpendicular to the direction of propagation to the wave

In the SI system, it has units watts per square metre (W/m2). It is used most frequently with waves (e.g. sound or light), in which case the average power transfer over one period of the wave is used. Intensity can be applied to other circumstances where energy is transferred.

hello mohan,wave intensity is the average power that travels  through a given area as the wave travels through place.the intensity of sound waves measured in decibels.

wave intensity is the average power the=at travels through a given area as the wave travels through space.the intensity i=of the sound wave is measured using discribel scale.
