The amplitude of a sound is not related to its frequency (wavelength).

There might appear to be a connection if the listener's hearing is more or less sensitive to certain frequencies. For example, as a sound with constant amplitude rises in frequency toward the upper limit of the listener's hearing range, it will be perceived as if its amplitude (loudness) is dropping, although that sensation is in the ear of the beholder and not a property of the sound itself.

What relationship exists between the amplitude of a wave and amount of disturbance in the water?

the wave amplitude increases


What is the relationship between the amplitude and the height of the wave?

amplitude is equal to one half of the wave height the greater the energy of the wave the greater its amplitude


What is the relationship between wave amplitude and intensity?

I=a2


What relationship exists between the amplitude of a wave and amount of a disturbance in the water?

the wave amplitude increases


Why does sound get louder when amplitude is increased?

Because there is a relationship between the amplitude of a sound wave and loudness of a sound.


What is the relationship between pitch and amplitude?

they are inversely proportional when the speed of the wave is constant


What is the relationship between the frequency and amplitude of a wave?

amplitude is the height of the wave from the middle point, it can be either from the middle to the bottom, or middle to the top of the wave. the frequency is how frequent the crests of each wave (the amplitude) pass a given point. so how they relate is, the highest point/lowest point is the crest, and the that is the amplitude is the ends of the crests ============================================ (In other words, to paraphrase the above remarks, there is no relationship between the amplitude and frequency of a wave. Either characteristic may be changed with no effect on the other.)


What is the relationship between a wave's amplitude and energy?

The energy and the amplitude are related in such a way that, the greater the amplitude the greater is the energy. The sound pressure amplitude tells about how loud the tone will be.


When a waves' amplitude increases does the frequency change?

Velocity of wave = frequency * wavelength (the universal wave equation does not involve amplitude) There is no direct relationship between the amplitude and the wavelength of a wave and therefore if the amplitude increases the wavelength will not necessarily change.


Is amplitude same as period?

No. If compared to ocean waves, amplitude would be wave height, and period would be how long to next wave.


Is the amplitude of a wave is the distance between a point on one wave and the identical point on the next wave?

No, the distance between a point on one wave and the identical point on the next wave is the wavelength, not the amplitude. Amplitude is the height of the wave.


What part of the wave is half the distance between the crest and the trough?

the point of inflection will appear half the distance between the peak and trough of a sinsoidal wave.
