The difference between the highest and lowest point of the surface of the water.
the wave amplitude increases
the amplitude of a water wave is the maximum distance a water particle moves above or below the surface level of calm water.
the maxium distance the particals of the medium carrying a wave move away from their mean position
if high amplitude was found in reservoir after injected water what that mean?
You would expect the Amplitude to DECREASE as the wave spreads out.
It's height. Think of a tall water wave that surfers use. Those waves have a large amplitude.
the wave amplitude increases
The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.
Amplitude has to do with sound. Vibrating air creates sound using amplitude which is the size of the vibration, and how loud it is. Frequency is the speed of the vibration. The higher the speed, the higher the sound and vice-versa. Amplitude has no effect on wave speed as relates to sound. I believe the same holds for waves of water. Amplitude or size of the wave effects its impact, not its speed.
what does a wave with high amplitude have
Energy content of the wave is dependent on the amplitude of the wave
