Across
  1. 4. the bouncing of a wave of a surface
  2. 6. the regions of a longitudinal wave where particles on a medium are closest together
  3. 7. a material in which a wave travels
  4. 9. the distance from one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave
  5. 10. disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring matter
  6. 16. a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction a wave travels
  7. 17. the transfer of energy by a wave to the medium through which it travels
  8. 19. the change in direction of a wave that occurs as the wave changes speed when moving from one medium to another
  9. 20. the lowest point on a transverse wave
Down
  1. 1. when a wave is reflected from a surface, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence
  2. 2. occurs when waves that overlap combine forming a new wave
  3. 3. the change in direction of a wave when it travels by the edge of an object or through an opening
  4. 5. the number of wavelengths that pass by each second
  5. 8. a wave that can only travel through matter
  6. 11. the regions of a longitudinal wave where the particles in the medium are furthest apart
  7. 12. makes the particles in a medium move parallel to the direction that a wave travels
  8. 13. a wave that can travel through empty space and matter
  9. 14. the passage of light through an object
  10. 15. the maximum distance that a wave moves from its rest position
  11. 18. the highest point on a transverse
