To increase the amplitude of a wave, you can increase the energy or force that is driving the wave. For example, for a sound wave, increasing the volume or intensity of the sound source will increase the amplitude of the wave. Similarly, for a water wave, increasing the force or energy creating the wave will result in a larger amplitude.

What does it mean when a wave has a large amplitude?

Bigger the amplitude, bigger the wave.


What does amplitude do to the size of a wave?

Amplitude affects the height of a wave. Increasing the amplitude of a wave will make it taller, while decreasing the amplitude will make it shorter.


How do you think the wave from a loud sound compares to the wave from a soft sound?

The amplitude (The height of the wave) of the wave increases as the sound gets louder.


The more energy a sound wave carries the louder the sound and the bigger its... what?

Other things being equal, the sound wave with more energy will have a greater amplitude.However, the energy (more precisely, the intensity) also depends on the distance from the source, and on the exact frequency.


Make a sentence with the word amplitude?

The amplitude to a wave is high.


Does wave speed depend on wave amplitude?

No, wave speed does not depend on wave amplitude. Wave speed is determined by the properties of the medium through which the wave is traveling, such as the medium's density and elasticity. Amplitude, on the other hand, is a measure of the maximum displacement of particles in a wave from their resting position.


What controls the amplitude of a wave?

What difference in a note does the amplitude of its sound wave make?

The amplitude of a sound wave determines the volume or loudness of the note. A higher amplitude wave produces a louder sound, while a lower amplitude wave produces a quieter sound.


What is maximum displacement of the wave from equilibrium called?

The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.


How does a change in the amplitude of a wave affect the sound produced?

Increasing the amplitude of a wave will make the sound louder, while decreasing it will make the sound quieter. Amplitude affects the volume of the sound but not its pitch.


What is the meaning of amplitude and how does it work?

By definition amplitude is simply the maximum distance from the zero or neutral position of the wave. NOTE: As a distance, amplitude is an absolute value, there will be no negative amplitudes. EX: A simple sine wave might have the form y = A sin(theta(x)) where theta(x) = 0 to 360 deg at x and y is the YY axis displacement of a wave along the XX axis. A is the amplitude. As you can see when theta = 90 and 270 degrees, y = A and - A. The absolute y value can't get any bigger than A so that's the maximum absolute value. So the amplitude is reached at those angles. Amplitude is an important factor in wave related physics. For example, it can be shown that the energy contained in a wave is proportional to the square of its amplitude. And that makes sense as the bigger the wave (the bigger amplitude) the more energy it would contain is intuitively logical.


Does a sound wave with a large amplitude transfer more frequency than a sound wave with a small amplitude?

No it doesn't. The amplitude is the distance of the crest/trough from the rest axis. The frequency is the rate at which the wave "pulsates". If the waves are closer together, then the frequency is increased. If the waves are bigger in width, the amplitude is increased.
