The resulting waveform will have the same frequency as both components although the amplitude will be doubled.

Measures the amount of particle vibration?

The amplitude of a wave measures the amount of particle vibration. It is the maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position as it oscillates back and forth in a wave.


What is amplitude and frequency of a wave?

The amplitude is the maximum displacement. The frequency is the number of peaks (or troughs) that occur in unit time (usually a second).


Can a low frequency wave have big or small amplitude?

Yes, a low frequency wave can have both big and small amplitudes. The amplitude of a wave refers to the maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position, and this can vary regardless of the frequency of the wave.


What is the maximum transverse speed of a particle on a wave?

The maximum transverse speed of a particle on a wave is equal to the amplitude of the wave multiplied by the angular frequency of the wave.


The time it takes for one full vibration of a particle in a medium?

This is also known as the period of the wave and is determined by the frequency of the wave. The period can be calculated as the reciprocal of the frequency.


What is the maximum transverse speed of a particle in a string?

The maximum transverse speed of a particle in a string is determined by the frequency and amplitude of the wave traveling through the string. It is the highest speed at which the particle moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave.


How are the amplitudes of sound waves?

There is not only "one" amplitude. There is an amplitude of particle displacement ξ, or displacement amplitude, an amplitude of sound pressure p or pressure amplitude, an amplitude of sound particle velocity v, or particle velocity amplitude, an amplitude of pressure gradient Δ p, or pressure gradient amplitude. If the "sound" inceases, the "amplitude" also increases.


The maximum displacement of a particle with a wave above or below its position is called amplitude?

The statement is incorrect. The maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position in a wave is known as the amplitude of the wave, not the amplitude of the particle itself.


How do you increase the wavelength of a wave?

The expression for the energy of a mechanical wave is E = 2 m pi2 nu2 a2 m - mass of the particle in the medium nu - frequency of the wave a - amplitude of wave. So to increase the energy we may increase the frequency or amplitude of wave. If m is larger then more energy is required to have the same amplitude. Hence with increased mass more energy will be stored.


is the amplitude the number of waves per second?

No, the amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of a particle from its rest position as the wave passes through a medium. The number of waves that pass a point in one second is referred to as the frequency of the wave.


What is the amplitude of a wave when two crests meet?

the maximum displacement of a wave particle is called the amplitude.also wave particles at maximum displacement form crests.therefore the amplitude of two crests should be the same.hence the amplitude of the wave when two crests meet is two times the amplitude of one the two crests.


What characteristics measures the amount of particle vibration?

The amplitude of particle vibration measures the maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position. The frequency of vibration indicates how many times a particle oscillates back and forth in a given time period. The energy of vibration determines the intensity or strength of the particle motion.
