Across
  1. 6. / occurs when an object causes a wave to change direction and bend around it.
  2. 7. wave / matter in the medium moves back and forth at right angles to the direction that the wave travels.
  3. 10. / the less dense region of a compressional wave.
  4. 11. wave / matter in the medium moves back and forth in the same direction that the wave travels.
  5. 13. / a repeating disturbance or movement that transfers energy through matter or space.
  6. 14. / occurs when a wave strikes an object and bounces off of it.
  7. 15. / the amount of time it takes one wavelength to pass a point.
  8. 16. / the low point of a transverse wave.
  9. 17. / A type of wave that requires a medium
  10. 18. / the matter that waves travel through.
  11. 19. / wave a special type of wave pattern that forms when waves equal in wavelength and amplitude, but travelling in opposite directions, continuously interfere with each other.
Down
  1. 1. / the number of crests or troughs that pass a fixed by a fixed point.
  2. 2. / when two or more waves overlap and combine to form a new wave.
  3. 3. / the distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point just like it.
  4. 4. / the high point of a transverse wave.
  5. 5. / the process by which an object is made to vibrate by absorbing energy at its natural frequencies.
  6. 8. / the bending of a wave caused by a change in its speed as it moves from one medium to another.
  7. 9. / A type of wave that does not require a medium and can travel through space.
  8. 12. / the greater this is in a wave, the more energy the wave carries.
