What is an example of amplitude of a wave?
The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of a particle from its rest position. For example, in a water wave, the amplitude would be the distance between the crest (highest point) and the trough (lowest point) of the wave.
What is maximum displacement of the wave from equilibrium called?
The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.
Why does a wave with a large amplitude carry more energy than one with small amplitude?
It is the same as why an object at higher place had more energy than one on the floor. Energy is the difference of potential, for kinetic energy example it is the height, greater height is greater energy. For the wave, energy could be stored in amplitude and frequency. Low amplitude or no amplitude is no energy and any amplitude higher than the zero amplitude would have more energy.
What is the units and symbol for amplitude?
The unit for amplitude is the same as the quantity being measured. For example, for sound waves, the unit could be decibels (dB). There is no specific symbol for amplitude as it depends on the context, but it is often represented by "A" or "Α".
What would a high amplitude light wave look like?
A high amplitude light wave would appear brighter and more intense compared to a low amplitude light wave. It would have larger fluctuations in its brightness and a stronger visual impact.

What is the amplitude of an X ray?
There is no specific amplitude for each type of wave. You should consider the amplitude to be the loudness of the wave for example the louder the sound the larger the amplitude.
What is maximum displacement of the wave from equilibrium called?
The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.
How does amplitude modulation transmit ones to zeros?
Amplitude modulations can be used to transmit binary data. Remember AM modulation is done using a single carrier frequency, and increasing or decreasing the amplitude. A high amplitude would be considered a '1', and a low amplitude would be considered a '0' (typically).
What is an antonym of amplitude?
The antonym or opposite of amplitude would be SMALL or PUNY. Hope it helped ALLEN306

What is an example of three words that have the same root word as the word amplitude?
Amplify, ample, and amplification all have the same root word as amplitude, which is "ample".

What does wave amplitude measure?
Wave amplitude is the strong or weak of the wave, like in sound, it would be the volume.
What is amplitude squared?
Amplitude squared is the amount of energy in a wave. The simplest calculations would be for a string wave.
What would a high amplitude light wave look like?
A high amplitude light wave would appear brighter and more intense compared to a low amplitude light wave. It would have larger fluctuations in its brightness and a stronger visual impact.
What would happen if you reduced the amplitude of a sound wave?
Because sound waves are displacements of molecules of the medium they travel through, reducing the amplitude would mean decreasing the displacement the molecules experience as the wave passes through. Even though sound waves are longitudinal (meaning the displacement is in the direction the wave travels in) and waves in water are transversal (the displacement is perpendicular to the wave's direction), an example can be found in water waves; reducing the amplitude in water waves would reduce the size/height of the waves. In the case of audible sound waves reducing the amplitude will decrease the volume of the sound.
