AMPLITUDE:
A sound waves height indicates the intensity or magnitude of the pressure wave. Amplitude is defined as the distance from the crest of the wave to the trough. The louder the sound, the greater the altitude, and the taller it's waveform. Sound is greater at it's source and diminishes over distance and time.
WAVELEGNTH:
The distance traveled during one complete vibration cycle, wave of energy. 
FREQUENCY:
Refers to a sound's low or high pitch. Measured in Hertz, cycles per second. A progression of a sound wave through one phase of rest, compression, and rarefaction is called a cycle, and the sound's frequency is based on it's numbers of cycles per second.
