as the amplitude increases the waves get closer together like an Accordion being squeezed...so the vibrations become faster (or higher pitched if we're talking about sound) if the amplitude is decreased the waves spread out and the vibration is slower and lower in pitch

What is the amplitude of a vibration?

The amplitude of a vibration is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. It represents the intensity or magnitude of the vibrations. A larger amplitude indicates a more energetic vibration, while a smaller amplitude indicates a less energetic vibration.


What happens to the frequency of the waves when you increase the rate of vibration?

the amplitude increases


What does amplitude tells us about a vibration?

Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position during one complete cycle of a vibration. It indicates the strength or intensity of the vibration, with larger amplitudes corresponding to more energetic vibrations.


Does the pitch of sound depend on the amplitude of the vibration?

No, the pitch of sound is determined by the frequency of the vibration, not the amplitude. Amplitude affects the loudness or intensity of sound, while frequency affects the pitch.


What is the amplitude of body if distance covered by it is 20cm in 1 vibration?

The amplitude of the body is half of the distance covered in one vibration. In this case, the amplitude would be 10cm.


What is the dimensional formula of amplitude of vibration?

The dimensional formula of amplitude of vibration is [L], where L represents length or distance. This is because amplitude is a measure of the maximum extent of a vibration from its equilibrium position, which is typically measured in units of length (such as meters).


What is the amplitude of a wave vibration?

The amplitude of a wave vibration refers to the maximum displacement of a vibrating particle from its equilibrium position. It represents the distance between the peak of a wave and its resting position. A larger amplitude indicates a stronger vibration or wave.


What is the difference between amplitude and vibration?

Amplitude- The maximum distance to which an oscillating or vibrating object moves from its central position is called amplitude. Vibration- Sound is produced by rapid -to and -fro movements ,called vibrations.


What happens to the potential difference when the number of cells increase?

the wave form will be changed acccording to the application.... when the amplitude is being changed,


What is the maximum displacement of the vibration from equilibrium position?

The amplitude.The amplitude.The amplitude.The amplitude.


When there is a reduction in amplitude over every cycle of vibration then the body is said to?

damped vibration


Is a sound quieter when a vibration is smaller?

No. If a vibration is smaller, the sound is higher pitched. To get a quieter sound the amplitude of the sound-wave needs to be smaller. +++ It depends whether you mean amplitude or wavelength being "smaller", and they are two different things. If the vibration's amplitude is smaller the sound is quieter irrespective of frequency. If the vibration is more rapid, the frequency is higher but the wavelength correspondingly smaller irrespective of amplitude.
