Mechanical waves such as sound waves and ocean waves have amplitude. Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of a wave from its rest position. It determines the intensity or loudness of the wave.
A radio wave has a small amplitude compared to other types of waves like sound waves or ocean waves. Radio waves have relatively low energy and long wavelengths, which contribute to their small amplitude.
No, waves with the same amplitude do not necessarily have the same speed. The speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which the wave is traveling, not its amplitude. Different waves (like sound waves or ocean waves) can have the same amplitude but travel at different speeds depending on the properties of the medium.
to measure the amplitude, you measure from the trough to midline.
At the immediate coast, up to 10m. Out in the ocean, just a metre or so.
Ocean waves and sound waves are similar in that they both involve the transfer of energy through a medium, they both exhibit characteristics such as frequency and amplitude, and they can both be reflected, refracted, and diffracted.
Nonlinear waves are waves in a medium where the wave behavior is not directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave. In linear waves, the wave amplitude increases or decreases proportionally with the input energy, but nonlinear waves exhibit complex interactions between different wave components. Nonlinear waves are commonly seen in nature, such as in ocean waves, sound waves, and light waves.
The size of the ball on the plunger does not affect the amplitude of the waves. The amplitude of the waves is determined by the energy put into creating the waves and the properties of the medium through which the waves travel. The size of the ball may affect other characteristics of the waves, such as frequency or wavelength, but not the amplitude.
The waves with the same amplitude are the ones that have equal height or intensity.
The amplitude of the sound waves will be largerbecause the larger the amplitude the louderthe sound.
The amplitude of a sound wave is related to its intensity, which determines the loudness of the sound. Sound waves with greater amplitude produce louder sounds, while sound waves with smaller amplitude produce softer sounds.
The amplitude of sound waves determines the loudness or volume of sound perceived by the human ear. Higher amplitude sound waves are perceived as louder, while lower amplitude sound waves are perceived as softer.
