Question

Define amplitude with reference to a simple pendulum

Answer 1

Answer:

Amplitude, in physics, the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position. ... The amplitude of a pendulum is thus one-half the distance that the bob traverses in moving from one side to the other.

Answer 2

Answer:

Amplitude : The maximum displacement of the bob from its mean position on either side, is called the amplitude of oscillation. It is denoted by the letter a or A and is measured in metre (m).
