Answer:

distance between crust and trough = 1m

amplitude = 1/2 = 0.5

The amplitude of the wave is mathematically given as

A=0.5m

What is the amplitude of the wave?

Question Parameters:

The distance between the crest and trough of an ocean wave is 1 meter.

Generally, The distance between the crest and trough of a wave is the wave-height of that wave.

Generally, The equation for the wave-height  is mathematically given as

Hw=2A

Therefore

A=Hw/2

A=1/2

A=0.5m

In conclusion, the amplitude of the wave is

A=0.5m
