what is amplitude ?
the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.
x=A \sin (\omega [ t-K])+ b
x = oscillating variable
A = amplitude
\omega = angular frequency
t = time
K = arbitrary constant representing time offset
b = arbitrary constant representing displacement offset
what is frequency ?
Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time. It is also referred to as temporal frequency, which emphasizes the contrast to spatial frequency and angular frequency. Frequency is measured in hertz which is equal to one occurrence of a repeating event per second.
The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change in 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 of a period function is sometimes called the amplitude.
