Amplitude Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Amplitude = Total Distance Traveled/Wave Frequency
A = D/f_w
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Amplitude - (Measured in Meter) - Amplitude is the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a wave from its equilibrium position, representing the wave's intensity or magnitude.
Total Distance Traveled - (Measured in Meter) - Total Distance Traveled is the cumulative distance covered by a wave as it propagates through a medium, encompassing the repetitive patterns of compression and rarefaction.
Wave Frequency - (Measured in Hertz) - Wave Frequency is the number of oscillations or cycles of a wave that occur in a given period of time, characterizing the wave's repetitive pattern of motion in a medium.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Distance Traveled: 60 Meter --> 60 Meter No Conversion Required
Wave Frequency: 152.48 Hertz --> 152.48 Hertz No Conversion Required

Time Period given Velocity

Go Time Period of Progressive Wave = Wavelength/Velocity of Wave

Time Period using Angular Frequency

Go Time Period of Progressive Wave = (2*pi)/Angular Frequency

Angular Frequency using Frequency

Go Angular Frequency = 2*pi*Wave Frequency

Time Period using Frequency

Go Time Period of Progressive Wave = 1/Wave Frequency

Amplitude Formula

Amplitude = Total Distance Traveled/Wave Frequency
A = D/f_w

What is Wave Frequency?

Wave frequency is the number of complete wave cycles that pass a given point in a unit of time, typically measured in Hertz (Hz). It indicates how often the wave oscillates and affects the pitch of sounds and the color of light. Higher frequency means more cycles per second.

How to Calculate Amplitude?

Amplitude calculator uses Amplitude = Total Distance Traveled/Wave Frequency to calculate the Amplitude, Amplitude formula is defined as a measure of the maximum displacement or distance of an object or a wave from its equilibrium position, representing the magnitude or intensity of the oscillation or vibration. Amplitude is denoted by A symbol.
