the highest point of a wave (transverse) is called a "crest" and the lowest point of a tranverse wave is called "trough"
what is the hight and low poinrts of a wave are respectively
The peak of a sound wave does not usually have another name.
All waves have peaks and troughs. Sometimes the peak is called a crest, but that is mostly for water waves.
We say the amplitude is the size of an oscillation, the size of the peak above the middle level of oscillation.
The peak is related to the intensity, but that is not the same as intensity.
The atmospheric pressure gives the steady-state sound level that can exist. A sound wave is increase of pressure (compression) and pressure decrease (rarefaction) of air. It is impossible to create a pressure of less than zero pascal (vacuum), so the limit is a peak pressure change of 1 atmosphere or 101325 Pa.
Calculation of the max. sound pressure gives: 20*log (101325 Pa/20µPa) = 194 dB SPL peak or 191 dB SPL RMS.
the highest point on a wave is crest<+ve> or trough<-ve>

Hmm
crest
the top of a sound wave is a crest
The crest.
The waves in which sound appears is called wave form of sound.
A sound wave with high sound pressure (amplitude) or high sound particle displacement (amplitude) is a sound wave that has a high loudness.
This is called wavelength.
the top of a sound wave is a crest
the top of a sound wave is a crest
from the top of one wave to the top of the next
The crest.
The waves in which sound appears is called wave form of sound.
A sound wave with high sound pressure (amplitude) or high sound particle displacement (amplitude) is a sound wave that has a high loudness.
This is called wavelength.
A stretched-out area of a wave is called a rarefaction.
The distance from the rest point to the top is called the amplitude. The top of the wave is called a crest and the bottom of a wave is called a trough.
Sound is a pressure wave. Objects that "allow" sound to travel through them could be called wave guides.
A bounced sound wave is acalled an echo. You can hear these echos when you yell into a cave or a crevasse or an abyss.
