What affect if any does frequency have on the amplitude of a wave?
The sound pressure amplitude tells about how loud the tone will be and the frequency (cycles per second) of the oscillation tells how high the sound of the tone will be. The amplitude gives the loudness of the tone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness The frequency gives the pitch of the tone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_%28music%29
Does higher or lower frequency mean more energy?
All else being equal, higher frequency.
How is the energy of a photon related to its frequency and wavelength?
wavelength : wavelength is the distance from crest of one wave to the crest of next frequency : the number of waves that passes a given point in one second energy : the amplitude or intensity of a wave energy and frequency is directly proportional to each other when energy is high frequency is also high wavelength and frequency or energy is inversly proportional to each other when wavelength is high frequency or energy is low
What is related to the amount of energy in a sound wave?
Sound waves are mechanical in nature. It means that it needs a material medium so essentially. As sound waves pass through the medium, the material does simple harmonic motion. Hence the energy is related to the amplitude of vibration. Energy is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude. Energy passing through the medium is derived in a formula as 2 pi2 m a2 f2. m- mass of the particle of the medium a-amplitude of vibration and f - the frequency of vibration. So the intensity is the term used to mean the energy of sound waves. It is defined as the energy per unit area crossing in one second.
What happens to the amplitude of the sound wave as the sound get louder?
Pitch is a characteristic decided by the frequency. So high pitch high frequency. Low frequency is the cause of low Pitch. Frequency and wavelength are always inversely related. So wavelength increases. But amplitude in no way is related to the pitch. Hence amplitude could remain the same.

What does AM and FM mean?
am is amplitude modulation, fm, frequency modulation
Does higher or lower frequency mean more energy?
All else being equal, higher frequency.
What does f m mean in radio frequency?
FM means frequency modulation, and AM means amplitude modulation.
What does a m mean in radio language?
AM = amplitude modulated. FM = frequency modulated.
What is the amplitude of the visible light spectrum?
It is not meaningful to talk about "amplitude of the visible light spectrum". One might think that more intense light would mean greater amplitude of the light wave, but it just means more photons. "Visible light" is made up of photons. A single photon has a certain quantifiable energy, and that energy is discussed in terms of frequency or wavelength. A photon with low frequency (towards the red end of the visible light spectrum, for instance) is less energetic than a photon with high frequency (towards the blue end and beyond). For all intents and purposes, the amplitude of a photon wave-packet could be said to be of "unit amplitude", the amplitude of light.
What is regular periodic waveforms?
Frequency: Frequency is also equal to the wavelength divided by the velocity and is designated as the number of cycles (or peaks) per second. Amplitude: Amplitude is the absolute value of the magnitude of the displacement of a wave from a mean value and is designated as mV
What does it mean when a waves amplitude increase?
Amplitude is the measure of a wave's energy; therefore, to increase amplitude, the energy being applied to the waves must be increased.
What is an AM transmitter?
Aplitude ModulationAn AM transmitter is a Amplitude Modulated transmitter where the amplitude of the Radio Frequency signal is modulated, usually used in the lower frequency bands where the frequency is to low for Frequency Modulation (FM), it was the first type of modulation used in radio communication FM was developed in the late 1950's and is not sensitive to static interference as AM AnswerAM is Amplitude Modulation that is the RF signals amplitude is modulated with the audio signal. this modulation is done because the audio signal being of low frequency cannot be transmitted to longer distance so the audio signal is amplitude modulated with RF signal and then transmitted into the air
What do the letters FM on your radio stand for?
They could mean a lot of things, but in the context of each other they probably stand for Amplitude Modulation and Frequency Modulation (two different methods for sending an audio signal using radio waves) respectively.
What does amplitude and pitch mean?
The sound pressure amplitude tells about how loud the tone will be and the pitch (frequency = cycles per second) of the oscillation tells how high the sound of the tone will be. The amplidude gives the loudness of the tone. The the pitch gives the frequency of the tone.

wavelength : wavelength is the distance from crest of one wave to the crest of next frequency : the number of waves that passes a given point in one second energy : the amplitude or intensity of a wave energy and frequency is directly proportional to each other when energy is high frequency is also high wavelength and frequency or energy is inversly proportional to each other when wavelength is high frequency or energy is low
