What else can I help you with?
What is the highest point of the pendulums swing called?
The highest point of a pendulum's swing is called the amplitude. This is the point where the pendulum's potential energy is at its maximum and its kinetic energy is at its minimum.
What is the lowest point of a light wave called?
The lowest point of a light wave is called the trough. This is where the wave reaches its minimum amplitude or lowest point of displacement from its equilibrium position.
Is a node is a position of half amplitude?
No, a node is a point along a standing wave where the amplitude is always zero. It is a point of minimum or zero displacement in a wave, as opposed to a position of half amplitude.
What point of a wave has negative amplitude?
The trough of a wave appears to have a negative amplitude. However, because amplitude is a distance measurement, which is a scalar quantity having only magnitude, it has no sign.
The lowest point between each crest of a wave?
is called the trough http://facstaff.gpc.edu/~pgore/geology/geo101/wavediagram.gif
The lowest point on a wave is the wave?
Minimum? Distance from equilibrium to minimum is the amplitude...

What is an antinode?
in a wave there are some points which vibrate with maximum amplitude these points are called antinodes.pressure at\on these points is minimum hence they are also called pressure nodes.
What is the point of zero amplitude on a standing wave called?
That point is called a 'node'. The point(s) of maximum amplitude, on the other hand, are called quite logically 'antinodes'. The wave is called a "standing" wave, not because it stands still; it does move vertically, but not horizontally. As a sidelight, a book from the golden age of Science Fiction (when such fiction was still related to science) by J.G. Ballard called Chronopolis postulated a space-time continuum structured as a standing wave surface, whereupon stable time is possible at the nodes.
A point of maximum amplitude on a standing wave is called what?
Antinodes are the points of maximum amplitude on a standing wave.
What is the distance from the equilibrium point to the crest or trough?
The distance from the equilibrium point to the crest (or trough) of a wave is called the amplitude. It represents the maximum displacement of a point on the wave from the equilibrium position. The larger the amplitude, the more energy the wave carries.
What are the maximum and minimum points of a wave called?
The maximum point of a wave is called the crest, and the minimum point is called the trough.
What is the extreme point called on a parabola?
The vertex, or maximum, or minimum.
