Answer:

Height of the wave from its equilibrium position is 1 meter

this parameter of wave is

Amplitude

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that the height of the wave is given by the maximum displacement of the medium particles from their mean position

The wave equation is given as


y = A sin(\omega t + kx + \phi)

now we have

A = amplitude

where this amplitude is the maximum displacement of the wave

So here correct answer is

B) Amplitude
