What is a point at which a standing wave has zero amplitude?
Node Point
What is the maximum disturbance of wave from a point of zero disturbance?
The amplitude.
How does destructive interference affect the amplitude of a wave?
Destructive interference affect the amplitude of a wave because two identical waves with similar amplitude and wavelength, arrive in anti phase, leading to a zero displacement.
What happens when a wave amplitude interferes with another wave amplitude of the same frequency?
They could undergo constructive interference in which the amplitudes of the two waves combine. For example, a wave with an amplitude of 2 units overlaps with another wave with an amplitude of 2 units, the overlapping amplitude will be 4 units. They could also undergo destructive interference in which the amplitude of one wave is 2 units and the amplitude of the second wave is -2 units. At the point where they meet, the combined amplitude will be zero.
What is the name given to a point in space where the wave amplitude is zero?
node

Node Point
What is the maximum disturbance of wave from a point of zero disturbance?
The amplitude.
What is a description of the amplitude of a wave?
The amplitude of a wave is the top or bottom half of a wave. The middle of the wave is considered the "zero position" so the top of every peak tells how much energy is left in the wave.

What Is an accurate description of the amplitude of a wave?
The amplitude of a wave is the top or bottom half of a wave. The middle of the wave is considered the "zero position" so the top of every peak tells how much energy is left in the wave.
What is phase shift when a sine wave with the maximum amplitude at time zero?
360 degrees
What is maximum displacement of the wave from equilibrium called?
The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.
What does standing wave mean?
It means that each point of the wave has a constant amplitude - but the amplitude is not the same for all points. Certain points where the wave passes - the nodes - have ZERO amplitude.This usually happens when the wave interferes with itself, for example, when the wave is reflected and goes back and forth.
A wave with high amplitude does what?

How is the amplitude of a wave related to the wave?
Energy content of the wave is dependent on the amplitude of the wave
