Low frequency waves have a very long wavelength. Radio waves are the waves with the lowest frequency, also known as electromagnetic radiation.

Muddled, because the question does not state in which context. The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from very low frequency radio, via infra-red (which is heat), visible light, ultraviolet light and X-rays, to gamma radiation. Wavelength is a function of frequency and speed through the medium carrying the signal (including in-vacuo for electromagnetic): Wavelength = Speed / Frequency. (Speed not velocity, because the latter is a vector.)

The wave marked with the purple line is the wave that has the lowest amplitude. The wave amplitude represents the vertical distance between the wave's peak or valley, and the equilibrium point. To put in other words, the wave amplitude can be defined as the maximum displacement between of the points on the wave.

Is amplitude measured from crest to crest?

Nope, Amplitude is the distance between the center line of a wave and the highest or lowest point.


What is the vertical distance from the crest of a wave to the trough?

Vertical distance from a wave's highest point to it's lowest point is called the amplitude of a wave.


How is the energy of a wave relate to its amplitude?

wavelength is the distance from the peak of one wave to the peak of the next. In this diagram, the wavelength is measured from crest to crest, but the wavelength could be measured from trough to trough as well.A wave's amplitude is the maximum distance that a wave vibrates from its resting position. In a transverse wave, this means that the amplitude of the wave is the highest or lowest point. In a longitudinal wave, the amplitude is the maximum distance the wave travels back or forth. The more energy the wave has, the larger the amplitude will be.

What is maximum displacement of the wave from equilibrium called?

The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.


What is the relationship between the frequency and amplitude of a wave?

amplitude is the height of the wave from the middle point, it can be either from the middle to the bottom, or middle to the top of the wave. the frequency is how frequent the crests of each wave (the amplitude) pass a given point. so how they relate is, the highest point/lowest point is the crest, and the that is the amplitude is the ends of the crests ============================================ (In other words, to paraphrase the above remarks, there is no relationship between the amplitude and frequency of a wave. Either characteristic may be changed with no effect on the other.)
