What is the amplitude of a sound wave a measure of?
The amplitude of a sound wave is the measure of the intensity of the sound, such as loudness.
What does amplitude measure in physics?
Amplitude is a measure of the Energy Content of a Wave.
The measure of a waves intensity?
The measure of the intensity of a wave is referred to as its amplitude.
What kind of wave in which amplitude changes to create sound?
The type of wave in which amplitude changes to create sound is a sound wave. Amplitude is the measure of the changes within the wave.
What is the amplitude of a wave is a direct measure of what?
The wave height and energy.
What does a seismic wave measure?
amplitude of an earthquake
How do you measure amplitude in a longitudinal wave?
You measure the displacement in the waves high.
How do you find the amplitude of a wave?
Measure the height of its peaks
What are three characteristics of a wave that you can measure?
5 characteristic of wavewavelengthfrequencyperiodamplitudespeed
What does the the amplitude look like for a loud sound?
The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of its loudness. A loud sound will have a higher amplitude.
Three characteristics of a wave that you can measure?
wavelength, amplitude, and frequency
What is the direct measure of energy from mechanical wave?
Amplitude is the direct measure of energy from a mechanical wave.=Waves are produced by something (a medium) vibrating. The farther the medium moves as it vibrates, the larger the amplitude of the resulting wave. For example, you can increase the amplitude of a wave on a rope by moving your hand up and down a greater distance. To do this you have to use more energy. The energy is transfered to the rope. The greater amplitude is a direct measure of the increased energy.=
