That depends on what discipline you're studying.
In Physics: the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.
• the maximum difference of an alternating electrical current or potential from the average value.
In Astronomy: the angular distance of a celestial object from the true east or west point of the horizon at rising or setting.
In Mathematics: the angle between the real axis of an Argand diagram and a vector representing a complex number.

How do you determine the ratio of an amplitude?
Amplitude ratio to dB conversion:For amplitude of waves like voltage, current and sound pressure level:GdB = 20 log10(A2 / A1)A2 is the amplitude level.A1 is the referenced amplitude level.GdB is the amplitude ratio or gain in dB.dB to amplitude ratio conversion:A2 = A1 · 10(GdB / 20)A2 is the amplitude level.A1 is the referenced amplitude level.GdB is the amplitude ratio or gain in dB.
What is the amplitude of y equals sin x?
The amplitude is 1.
The amplitude of a pendulum is doubled this means?
That if the original amplitude was A then it is now 2*A.
A labelled diagram of a amplitude?
Amplitude is just themaximum displacementof a wave:
Determine the amplitude of y equals cos x?
The amplitude is ' 1 ' .
What is the measurement of a amplitude?
Decibels probably
The hight of a wave?
The height of a wave is also known as its amplitude. More generally, the amplitude is "how much some measurement changes" - this measurement need not always be a height.
Of What is amplitude a measurement.?
Distance between the peakes and troughs in a waves oscillations.
What point of a wave has negative amplitude?
The trough of a wave appears to have a negative amplitude. However, because amplitude is a distance measurement, which is a scalar quantity having only magnitude, it has no sign.
How do you convert hz to decibles?
You don't. Hz (always capitalized) is the unit for measuring frequency or pitch. dB is the unit for measuring amplitude or relative loudness of the sound. You cannot convert a frequency measurement to an amplitude measurement.
The Richter magnitude of an earthquake is determined from the .?
measurement of the amplitude of the largest seismic waves
Which of the following can be used in the measurement of an analog signals amplitude?
Amperes Hertz Watts
What do you call the measurement of a wave magnitude of oscillation?
a device called a rictor scale is used
Half the vertical distance between the crest and through of a wave is called the?
The vertical distance between a wave's midpoint and its crest or trough is called is peak amplitude. This differentiates this measurement from the vertical distance from a crest to a trough, which is called its peak-to-peak amplitude.
What is the SI unit of the amplitude of a wave?
We need a length or distance measurement here. The unit is meter or a part of it, like centimeter, millimeter.
What has the author Thomas L Murray written?
Thomas L. Murray has written: 'A Real-time Seismic Amplitude Measurement System (RSAM)' -- subject(s): Seismometry, Measurement, Computer programs
How loud a sound seems is determined by what measurement of the sound waves?
Loudness is determined by the amplitude of the sound waves.
