Amplitude meaning

amplitude, in physics, the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position . It is equal to one-half the length of the vibration path.

Amplitude—maximum displacement from the equilibrium position of an object oscillating around such equilibrium position . Frequency—number of events per unit of time. Period—time it takes to complete one oscillation.

A sound wave’s amplitude relates to changes in pressure. The sound is perceived as louder if the amplitude increases, and softer if the amplitude decreases .27 Oca 2022
