We need a length or distance measurement here. The unit is meter or a part of it, like centimeter, millimeter.
The S.I. unit of amplitude is meters(m) :-)
It is in meters.
meters
The SI unit for the amplitude of sound is decibel. It is written as dB.
Amplitude is used for different waves. For a water wave, the amplitude might be measured in units of length (meters or centimeters), for a sound wave, in units of pressure, for an electromagnetic wave, in terms of electrical properties, for an electrical signal, in volts, etc. - so it really depends on the kind of wave.
W/m2
It has a large amplitude if the compressions of the wave are dense.
The amplitude (The height of the wave) of the wave increases as the sound gets louder.
The SI unit for the amplitude of sound is decibel. It is written as dB.
In fact, energy of the wave is one interpretation of a wave's amplitude. Many versions of amplitude exist. If amplitude has a specific meaning and a specific unit...it needs to be specified. Some examples are displacement amplitude, energy amplitude, pressure amplitude, restoring force amplitude, intensity, decibel level, etcetera.

The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.
W/m2
si
The amplitude is the maximum displacement. The frequency is the number of peaks (or troughs) that occur in unit time (usually a second).
what does a wave with high amplitude have
Energy content of the wave is dependent on the amplitude of the wave
the amplitude of a wave shows how much energy it has eg, a smaller voltage ac supply on an oscilloscope would be much smaller than say a higher voltage such as main electrical pylons. if you mean waves at sea then i would presume it would have to be measured in joules as this the standard SI unit for energy.
The SI unit for ANY velocity is meters / second.
wellllll energy of the wave controls the amplitude of a wave
