Answer:

C. amplitude = 0.10 m, wavelength = 0.60 m

Explanation:

The diagram shows an oscillating progressive wave, with its amplitude and wavelength.

Amplitude of a wave is the maximum distance covered either upward or downward.

So that,

amplitude of the wave, A = [tex]\frac{0.2}{2}[/tex]

                                          = 0.1

Amplitude of the wave = 0.1 m

Wavelength in this case is the distance from crest to crest, or trough to trough of the wave.

So that,

wavelength = [tex]\frac{1.5}{2.5}[/tex]

                   = 0.6

wavelength of the wave = 0.6 m

Therefore, the amplitude of the wave is 0.10 m, while the wavelength is 0.60 m.
