Detailed Solution

Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the mean position on either side.
A wave travels in the form of troughs and crests. The crest is the displacement of the particle from the mean position to the positive side, and the crest is the displacement of the particle towards the negative side. At the same time, the amplitude is the maximum displacement of the particle on either side. Its SI unit is metre(m).
