The formula to calculate Amplitude (A) is:
\[ A = \frac{D}{f} \]
Where:
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 is the cumulative distance covered by a wave as it propagates through a medium, encompassing the repetitive patterns of compression and rarefaction.
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.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ A = \frac{D}{f} \]
Evaluating:
\[ A = \frac{60}{152.48} \]
The Amplitude is 0.393494228751312 meters.
