    In some contexts though, for example in "a small but finite amplitude", zero and infinitesimals are meant to be excluded. When said of the value of a variable assuming values from the extended natural numbers N ∪ { ∞ } , {\displaystyle \mathbb {N} \cup \{\infty \},} the meaning is simply "not infinite".

  3. Crest and trough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_and_trough

    Crest and trough in a wave. A Crest point on a wave is the highest point of the wave. A crest is a point on a surface wave where the displacement of the medium is at a maximum. A trough is the opposite of a crest, so the minimum or lowest point of the wave.

    Peak-to-peak amplitude (abbreviated p–p or PtP or PtoP) is the change between peak (highest amplitude value) and trough (lowest amplitude value, which can be negative). With appropriate circuitry, peak-to-peak amplitudes of electric oscillations can be measured by meters or by viewing the waveform on an oscilloscope .

    The scattering amplitude can thus be thought of as the volume of a certain polytope, the positive Grassmannian, in momentum twistor space. [ 1 ] When the volume of the amplituhedron is calculated in the planar limit of N = 4 D = 4 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory , it describes the scattering amplitudes of particles described by this theory.

    Is a sinusoidal function whose amplitude approaches zero as time increases. [29] degree of a polynomial Is the highest degree of its monomials (individual terms) with non-zero coefficients. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables that appear in it, and thus is a non-negative integer. derivative

    The Fourier transform, () (in blue), which depicts amplitude vs frequency, reveals the 6 frequencies (at odd harmonics) and their amplitudes (1/odd number). The sine and cosine functions are fundamental to the theory of periodic functions , [ 63 ] such as those that describe sound and light waves.
