    The given figure shows the wave generated on a
    The amplitude of the wave is

    A)  5 cm                     

    B)  7 cm

    C)  10 cm                  

    D)  14 cm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

      Amplitude is the physical characteristic of a wave. It is given by the maximum rise or fall of a point on the string. Since the string rises to a maximum height of\[\frac{14\,cm}{2}=7cm\]from the equilibrium position (as shown in the given figure), it can be concluded that the amplitude of the wave is 7 cm.
