Ответ:
They don’t ‘represent’ anything, they are properties of the wave.
Depending on the type of wave, we experience them as various phenomena. For example, with a sound wave we experience frequency (or wavelength, which is just another way to describe the same property) as the pitch of the sound. We experience amplitude as the loudness of the sound, although due to the characteristics of the ear, frequency also effects perceived loudness.
If the wave is a light wave, we experience the frequency (wavelength) as the colour of the light, and the amplitude as the brightness of the light.
For many waves, we don’t perceive them at all (e.g. radio waves).
For ocean waves, frequency is the time for each peak or trough to reach us, and amplitude is how tall the wave is.
