Morphology

strength = strong (semi-transparent) = strong + th

Using 'strength' to mean concentration or intensity is an extended, somewhat technical usage of 'strong'.

Etymology

Strength comes from old English roots strong ('powerful') and -th ('state' or 'degree'). So, the 'strength' of a solution or signal is how strong or concentrated it is.
