A yellow traffic light means to slow down or stop completely. When the light is yellow it is about to change to red in a few seconds. Contrary to popular belief by many drivers yellow does not mean speed up.
Yellow light
It's a cautionary signal to inform you that the light is about to change to red. If you can stop within reason, you're expected to.
Yellow, then red is the patterns of the traffic lights.
A yellow arrow traffic light means that you should yield in the direction you are going. These are often in place when you are turning left.
In the United States, the middle light on a traffic light is "Yellow" or "Amber," depending on the regional colloquialism.
Do not enter the intersection.
A traffic light you seen change to green
By "amber" I assume you mean yellow. A yellow traffic light indicates that your "right of way" is ending within the next couple seconds. When the light turns yellow you shouldn't enter the intersection if you haven't already, unless you've reached "The point of no return". It's not illegal to go through the intersection while the traffic light is yellow, but if you can stop you should, if you can't stop then go through the intersection (determined by your own judgement). A yellow light is basically a warning of a red light coming, where it is illegal to proceed through the intersection. The duration of a yellow light depends on the road the traffic light is governing. For a side road the traffic light may only show a yellow for around 3 seconds, for a major road such as a state road or US Highway, the traffic light may show a yellow for 4-6 seconds. These timings all depend on the road that the traffic light is governing and what the speed limit is for that road.

Yes; Traffic lights change colour on average every three to five minutes. Just stand at any traffic junction!
