Explain the term a) amplitude b) wavelength
Answers
Answer:
=>The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change over a single period. There are various definitions of amplitude, which are all functions of the magnitude of the differences between the variable's extreme values. In older texts the phase is sometimes called the amplitude
=>Wavelength: It is defined as the distance travelled by a wave during the time a particle of the medium completes one vibration. Or the distance between successive crests or troughs of a wave It is denoted by Greek letter 'λ' read as Lambda.
Answer:
a) Amplitude => It is the maximum extent of vibration or oscillation measured from the point of equilibrium.
b) Wave length => It is the distance between the successive crests or troughs
