To find out how loud or soft a sound is you measure its?
Sound is the oscillation of pressure through a medium and is measured in decibels.
What is the interaction between two waves that meet?
Interference. This can result in either constructive interference, resulting in increased amplitude, or destructive interference, whereby there would a reduced amplitude.
When signal amplitude is equal to carrier amplitude then modulation index is?
amplitude modulating signal
How are frequency and amplitude related?
They're not. The same amplitude can have high or low frequency, and the same frequency can have large or small amplitude.
What is the modulating frequency of amplitude modulation?
the frequency range of an am wave is 20herz to 20kilo herz
Is amplitude measured from crest to crest?
Nope, Amplitude is the distance between the center line of a wave and the highest or lowest point.
The distance between the crest of a wave to the rest position of the medium?
The distance between the highest crest and the rest position is the amplitude of the wave
Which property of a wave is defined as the height as measured from the resting position to the crest?
That is called the amplitude.
What is the height of a wave measured by the distance between the center of the wave and the crest or trough?
It is the amplitude
What are three basic components of all signals?
•Amplitude-Height (loudness) of the wave-Measured in decibels (dB)•Frequency:-Number of waves that pass in a second-Measured in Hertz (cycles/second)-Wavelength, the length of the wave from crest to crest, is related to frequency•Phase:-Refers to the point in each wave cycle at which the wave begins (measured in degrees)-(For example, changing a wave's cycle from crest to trough corresponds to a 180 degree phase shift).
Wave lenght is measured from the crest to the trough?
No. The wavelength is measured from crest to crest.
Is wave length is measured from crest to the trough?
False, it is measured from crest to crest.
What is the distance from the equilibrium point to the crest or trough?
That's the wave's Amplitude .
What is it called when the crest of two waves overlap and result in an increased wave amplitude?
Superimposing of waves is when two or more waves travel through the same medium and intersect. The net displacement is the addition of the waves amplitude. If they are in phase they increase amplitude; out of phase, the amplitude decreases.
What the amplitude in a water wave is?
The height of the wave measured from the place of zero disturbance - in other words, half the vertical distance between crest and trough.
What is the maximum distance the particles of a medium carrying the wave move away from their resting position?
A wave's ___________ is a measure of how far the particles in a medium move away from their normal rest position.
What are the parts of the wave?
The trough or the valley between two waves is the lowest part of a wave. Its highest point is called the crest.
