Calculate
the amplitude of the wave.

Amplitude, A = 5 m

Explanation:

Let a progressive wave is given by equation :

.....(1)

The general equation of a progressive wave is given by :

....(2)

Here,

A is the amplitude of the wave

is the angular frequency

k is propagation constant

We need to find the amplitude of the wave.

If we compare equations (1) and (2), we find that the amplitude of the given plane progressive wave is 5 m.

layers of the earth affect the waves and these effects are seen on instruiments such as seimometers
