The depth of a wave from the midpoint line to the trough or crest is known as the amplitude. It represents the maximum displacement of water particles from their rest position as the wave passes through. The larger the amplitude, the more energy the wave carries.

When you the height of a wave from the center line to a crest or trought is the waves?

The height of a wave from the center line to a crest or trough is known as the amplitude of the wave. Amplitude represents the maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position. It is a measure of the energy carried by the wave.


How do you find the midpoint of a line?

The midpoint of a line can be found easily by using the midpoint formula. Find the length of the line and simply divide it in two.


What is a midpoint of a line?

For a line segment the midpoint is equidistant from both ends.However a full line in geometry can have no midpoint as it has no ends and extends to infinity both ways.


Does a midpoint bisect a line?

A midpoint is in the middle of the line but does not bisect it because it is just a point on that line and does not cross the line.


What is difference between midpoint theorem and definition of midpoint?

Definition of midpoint: a point, line, or plane that bisects a line so that AB=BC Midpoint theorem: a point, or plane that bisects a line so that line AB is congruent to line BC. A-----------------------------------------------B----------------------------------------------------C The definition of midpoint refers to equality, while midpoint theorem refers to congruency.


Why a line segment has only one midpoint but can have many bisectors?

All bisectors intersect the line segment at the midpoint. There can be multiple bisectors, intersecting at the midpoint at different angles, but they all intersect the line segment at its midpoint. The midpoint separates the line segment into two equal halves.


Is the midpoint of a line the same as the slope of a line?

No. The midpoint of a line is the middle point on the line, while the slope is a measure of how the line is oriented.


A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
