Q: The amplitude of the wave is-
  • A. The distance travelled by the wave over a time period of the wave
  • B. of the medium on either side from the central state
  • C. Distance travelled by the wave in 1 second
  • D. Distance travelled by the wave in 1 second
Correct Answer: Option B - The amplitude of the wave is the maximum distance travelled by the particles of the medium on either side from the central space (up or down).
B. The amplitude of the wave is the maximum distance travelled by the particles of the medium on either side from the central space (up or down).

Explanations:
