the rest position, or where it stops
The point where the wave crosses the rest position is called the equilibrium or zero point. This is where the particles in the medium are at their average or resting position before being displaced by the wave.
The resting point of a wave is called the equilibrium position or the midpoint. This is where the wave crosses the x-axis when graphed.
wave.
The maximum distance that particles of a wave's medium vibrate from their resting position is called the amplitude. It represents the strength or intensity of the wave. Amplitude is typically measured from the equilibrium position of a wave to the peak of its oscillation.
The maximum distance that matter is displaced from its resting position is called the amplitude. It represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its equilibrium point.
The high spot of a wave is called the crest. It is the highest point of the wave above the resting position of the water.
The maximum value a wave reaches relative to its resting position is called the amplitude of the wave. Amplitude is the distance from the highest point of the wave to its resting position.
A wave where the medium moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave is called a transverse wave. Its highest point is called the crest.
The trough of a wave is the lowest point of the wave where the displacement of the medium is at its minimum.
The bar is pivoted.
Amplitude
A wave's ___________ is a measure of how far the particles in a medium move away from their normal rest position.
