Amplitude defines how powerful waves are. Frequency and wavelength are measures of how often the wave fluctuates or far the wave is from crest to crest , These are related and can be calculated from each other if you know how fast the waves travel.

How is frequency and amplitude related?

Frequency and amplitude are two key characteristics of waves. In general, higher frequency waves have a shorter wavelength and carry more energy. Meanwhile, amplitude refers to the height of a wave and is not directly related to frequency.

What are the threw features of waves that are used to meusure them?

The three key features of waves that are used to measure them are frequency, wavelength, and amplitude. Frequency refers to the number of complete oscillations a wave completes in one second. Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points on a wave that are in phase. Amplitude measures the maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position.

What are the three ways in which waves can be measured?

Waves can be measured in terms of their amplitude, frequency, and wavelength. Amplitude refers to the height of the wave, frequency is the number of waves passing a point in a given time, and wavelength is the distance between two corresponding points on a wave.
