What is a inclined trough used to convey water for a long distance?

An inclined trough used to convey water for a long distance is called an aqueduct. Aqueducts have been used historically to transport water from a water source to places where it is needed, such as cities or agricultural fields. They rely on gravity to move the water along the sloped trough.


Explain what the amplitude of a water wave is?

The amplitude of a water wave is the maximum displacement of a water surface from its undisturbed position. It represents the height of the wave crest or the depth of the wave trough from the equilibrium level of the water.


Half the vertical distance between the crest and the trough of a wave is called the what?

Amplitude is approximately half the height of a wave or the vertical distance between still water level and the wave peak.

What is distance between two adjacent wave crest or water troughs?

The distance between two adjacent wave crests or water troughs is called the wavelength. It is measured from one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough.


What the amplitude in a water wave is?

The height of the wave measured from the place of zero disturbance - in other words, half the vertical distance between crest and trough.
