The maximum height of a wave is what?

Amplitude, which is defined as the maximum displacement of a wave from it's centre of oscillation.


Is oscillation a wave?

NO,oscillation is not necessarily a wave because energy is not transported in oscillation.In oscillation there is no space periodicity.An oscillation is periodic in time only where as a wave is periodic in time and space both.


What is the maximum displacement of points on a wave?

The maximum displacement of points on a wave is known as the amplitude. It represents the distance from the equilibrium position of a particle in the medium to the maximum height of its oscillation.


What do you call the measurements of a wave's magnitude of oscillation?

The measurements of a wave's magnitude of oscillation are called amplitude. Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position.


State what oscillates in this type of wave?

In a transverse wave, such as a light wave or a water wave, the oscillation occurs perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. The wave's energy is transferred by the oscillation of particles or fields up and down, creating peaks and troughs along the wave.


What is a a wave where the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion?

A transverse wave is a type of wave where the oscillation of particles is perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. Examples include light waves, water waves, and seismic S waves.


What is the direction of wave propagation in a transverse wave?

In a transverse wave, the direction of wave propagation is perpendicular to the direction of the wave oscillation.


What is define of amplitude?

Amplitude is the measure of the maximum displacement of a wave from its rest position. In simpler terms, it represents the height of a wave from its peak to its baseline. A larger amplitude indicates a higher intensity or energy in the wave.


What is the Lowest part of oscillation of a transverse wave?

Trough.


What is the term for oscillation of water particle in the ocean?

Wave.


What is an oscillation that travels from one place to another?

A wave


Is a rope wave a longitudinal wave?

No, rope wave is a transverse wave, because the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of movement of wave.
