looks big because is taking space
:-)
Seriously, it's the height of the turning-point above or below the x-axis; applied normally to the maxima or minima of a harmonic curve such as a sine-wave, typically measured as an electrical or acoustic signal.
If both turning-point heights are added the total amplitude is called "Peak-to-Peak"; if only one side is used, it's the "Peak" amplitude. There's also an intermediate "Root Mean Square" (r.m.s.) level, a sort of algebraic average, but I don't know its formula to quote here.
What else can I help you with?
How does amplitude affect the shape of a graph?
The amplitude of a graph determines how high or low the graph goes on the y-axis. A larger amplitude results in a taller or deeper graph, while a smaller amplitude results in a shorter or shallower graph.
How do you graph sound?
You can graph the changes in pressure. Or you can separate the sound into frequencies, and graph those (by amplitude).
What does the the amplitude look like for a loud sound?
The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of its loudness. A loud sound will have a higher amplitude.
Examples of a step graph?
What does a Step Graph look like?
What does an equilibrium graph look like?
look like a ball
What does a line graph look like?
a line graph looks like a stocks chart
What does data look like?
a data i like a graph it could be any kind of graph pie,bar,line graph
What does the period vs amplitude graph reveal about the relationship between the two variables?
The period vs amplitude graph shows that there is no direct relationship between the period and amplitude of a wave. The period and amplitude of a wave are independent of each other, meaning changes in one variable do not necessarily affect the other variable.
What does acceleration look like as a graph?
The answer depends on what is plotted on the graph and what is happening with the acceleration then.
What is amplitude as it pertains to the graph of sine and cosine?
There are several ways to look at it.... The peak amplitude of the functions y = sin(x) and y = cos(x) is 1. The peak-to-peak amplitude of the functions is 2. The RMS (root mean square) amplitude of the functions is the reciprocal of the square root of two (2-½ ≈ 0.707).
What does a composite graph look like?
it looks like any oyher graph u now EDIT: It looks like any other graph you know.
How do you gradually increase the period of a cosine graph?
Increase the amplitude and the frequency
