The amplitude of a longitudinal wave, such as a sound wave, is measured by determining the maximum displacement of particles from their equilibrium position within the wave. This can be quantified by measuring the distance from the rest position to the crest (or trough) of the wave. In practical applications, instruments like oscilloscopes or microphones can be used to capture this information, translating it into a measurable amplitude value, often represented in units such as decibels for sound waves.
Latitude and longitude are measured in degrees, with latitude representing north-south position and longitude representing east-west position on the Earth's surface.
The longitude of any point on Earth is the angle measured east or west to it ... whichever is shorter ... from the Prime Meridian.
No, that's latitude. Longitude is measured east or west of the Prime Meridian, which runs through the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England.
Latitude is measured as the angle between the point and the equator, ranging from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles. Longitude is measured as the angle between the point and the prime meridian, ranging from 0° to 180° east or west. These measurements help pinpoint a specific location on Earth's surface.
Longitude can be measured in values ranging from -180° to +180°.
The amplitude of a longitudinal wave is typically measured as the maximum displacement of particles from their rest position as the wave passes through a medium. In a sound wave, for example, the amplitude is related to the loudness of the sound. It can be measured using instruments such as a microphone or a vibration sensor.
Amplitude of a longitudinal wave is measured as a change in pressure.
the question is asking if the amplitude can be measured by medium or crest and the answer is CREST
The maximum displacement of a wave is measured by its amplitude. Amplitude refers to the maximum distance that a wave's particles are displaced from their rest position.
In Decibels
Amplitude can be measured by calculating the maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position. For example, in a simple harmonic oscillator, amplitude is measured as the distance from the equilibrium position to the maximum displacement of the oscillator. In a wave, amplitude can be measured as the height of the wave from the resting position to the peak.
Sound energy travels in waves and is measured in frequency and amplitude
Amplitude is measured from the baseline or midpoint of a wave to the peak or trough of the wave. It represents the maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position.
