Which refers to the amount of energy in a sound wave per unit of time and is also related to the loudness of a sound?

Intensity describes the rate at which sound-wave energy passes through a given area, and it is related to how loud the sound seems. Amplitude is the size of the wave’s vibrations, while period is the time for one vibration and compression is a region of higher pressure. The correct choice is intensity.
