The wavelength is the distance the wave travels before repeating in meters. The amplitude of the wave is the deflection from peak to trough in units of the wave value, e.g electric field or velocity.

What is the difference between loudness and pitch of sound?

Amplitude versus frequencyLoudness is a function of the sound wave's amplitude of the sound pressure. Aour ear drums are moved by the sound pressure.The greater the amplitude, the greater the volume. Pitch is related to its frequency. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.Loudness = amplitude of the sound pressureSoftest soundLoudest soundPitch = frequencyLowest pitchHighest pitch

How much greater is a magnitude 8 earthquake than a magnitude 4 earthquake in amplitude?

The Richter magnitude scale is a base-10 logarithmic scale of the shaking amplitude. This means that a difference of 1 in the scale is equivalent to a 10-fold increase in amplitude. So the difference in amplitude between a mag 8 and a mag 4 earthquake is 104.

In a transverse wave amplitude is the difference in height between the crest and .?

In a transverse wave, amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position to the crest or trough of the wave. It is a measure of the energy carried by the wave.


What is Amplitude in Data communication?

Amplitude in data communication refers to the size or magnitude of a signal. It represents the strength or intensity of the signal, typically measured as the difference between the peak and trough of a waveform. In analog transmission, amplitude modulation (AM) alters the amplitude of a carrier wave to encode information.


What characteristics of sound is determined by amplitude?

The strength or volume of sound. By increasing the amplitude you enlargens the energy because the difference between peak negative and peak positive voltage in the waveform gets bigger. One use positive and negative voltage so that a loudspeaker can Push and Pull the membrane. Amplitude is the difference between Negative and Positive. IE Wave Bottom and Wave Top.
