You can "read" these information from the numbers in your equation:
y = 1 sin ( 2 x )
1 is the amplitude meaning that your function is oscillating between +1 and -1;
2 is used to evaluate the period as: period = 2 π 2 = π so that one complete oscillation of your sine function is "squeezed" inside the interval 0 to π
