As radio frequency, in would be modulation in hertz, kilohertz, megahertz. In other areas of measure it could be peak-to-peak. I.E. the maximum absolute value of some quantity that varies, usually with regular frequency.
The unit of amplitude depends specifically on the type of wave, certain mechanical waves (e.g. those in in a plucked guitar string) have amplitudes measured in metres. Pressure waves (such as sound) have the unit of pressure as their amplitude (Pascals) where as electromagnetic waves use the electric field strength in volts/metre as the unit of amplitude.
As you look at an oscilloscope, the vertical peak of a waveform
From Wikipedia: The maximum absolute value of the vertical component of a curve or function, especially one that is periodic.

Is the unit of amplitude same as that of density and pressure?
No.
What is the -3dB cutoff frequency?
A: It is a standard statement to signify that the amplitude is one half.
What do you use to measure the amplitude of sound?
A sound level meter would be used to measure sound level, and the unit is in decibels, dB. You could also measure it with a microphone and oscilloscope, provided you could calibrate them against standard instruments.
Is a meter a standard unit of measurement?
By unit of length and distance and conversion ,we can say that meter is a a standard unit of measurement
How many feet is 4.67 ac?

What is the SI unit of amplitude for sound?
The SI unit for the amplitude of sound is decibel. It is written as dB.
Is the unit of amplitude same as that of density and pressure?
No.
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 does the energy of a mechanical wave depend on?
In fact, energy of the wave is one interpretation of a wave's amplitude. Many versions of amplitude exist. If amplitude has a specific meaning and a specific unit...it needs to be specified. Some examples are displacement amplitude, energy amplitude, pressure amplitude, restoring force amplitude, intensity, decibel level, etcetera.
What is amplitude and frequency of a wave?
The amplitude is the maximum displacement. The frequency is the number of peaks (or troughs) that occur in unit time (usually a second).
Is a teaspoon a standard unit or a metric unit?
TSP is a standard unit.
Meter is the standard unit of?
Standard unit of length
What is the si unit for amplitude?
Amplitude is used for different waves. For a water wave, the amplitude might be measured in units of length (meters or centimeters), for a sound wave, in units of pressure, for an electromagnetic wave, in terms of electrical properties, for an electrical signal, in volts, etc. - so it really depends on the kind of wave.
The kilogram is the standard unit of?
It is the SI unit (that is, the international standard unit) of mass
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.
What is meant by am in radio?
Amplitude Modulation- AM standard Broadcast band. AM is an abbreviation for amplitude modulation,a form of radio transmission in which the carrier radio wave's amplitude is varied according to the strength of the modulating signal(sense).
Is standard units and si units the same?
