The two are not directly related. You can change the amplitude without changing the wavelength, and vice versa.

Wave length*2 dvided by number of waves Amplitude is the vertical distance (from crest to trough) divided by 2
A measure of the strength of a wave is its amplitude which is the vertical distance between the heights of the wave's peaks and the heights of its troughs. An ocean wave might be said to be 20 metres high, for instance, meaning that an observer can see that the bottom of the wave is 20 metres below the top of the wave. The amplitude of that wave would be 20 metres. If you wanted to compare two waves you could use their amplitude ratio, simply the ratio of their two amplitudes.
'Y' varies between -4 and +4. Viewed as a wave, its amplitude is 4.
Amplitude squared is the amount of energy in a wave. The simplest calculations would be for a string wave.
Amplitude is just themaximum displacementof a wave:
