What is the height of the crest or trough?

The height of a wave crest or depth of a trough is called the amplitude of the wave.


What is the height of a wave measured by the distance between the center of the wave and the crest or trough?

The height of a wave is measured from the center of the wave (the equilibrium position) to the crest or trough of the wave. It is half the distance between the crest and trough of the wave.


What measures the height of a wave?

Generally taken as the height between the crest and the preceding trough.


What is the highest point of a wave a. crest c. wave height b. trough d. wavelength?

a. crest


How do you measure a transverse?

Is the wave length measured from the crest to the trough true or false?

False. The wavelength of a wave is actually measured from crest to crest, or trough to trough, not from crest to trough.


What is the right way to describe the structure of a wave?

The lowest point of a wave is called the trough, the peak of a wave is called the crest, and the length from the trough to the crest is called the wave height.-Superchick606

What is the difference between a crest and a trough?

If you are referring to a sine wave, a crest is the point on a wave with the maximum value or upward displacement within a cycle. A trough is the opposite of a crest, so it is the minimum or lowest point in a cycle. See Photo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crest_trough.svg
