Question

What is amplitude?

A. Amplitude is the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a given point.


B. Amplitude is the height of a wave.


C. Amplitude is the distance between two crests or two troughs.


D. Amplitude is the number of complete waves that pass a point in a second.

Answer 1

by definition, ans is B. Amplitude is the height of a wave.

Answer 2

B. Amplitude is the height of a wave.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amplitude may have differing (and sometimes tricky) definitions. The most frequent, for symmetric waves) is one that declares an amplitude the change of a signal/wave-height from the zero-intercept/equilibrium point, or, similarly, half the difference between the maximum and the minimum peak within one period.
