Characteristics of waves
Across
- 4. A repeated back-and-forth or up-and-down motion.
- 5. A wave that occurs at the surface between two mediums.
- 7. The part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are far apart.
- 9. Units of measurement for frequency.
- 11. A wave that moves the medium in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the wave travels.
- 13. The distance between two corresponding part of a wave.
- 14. How far the wave travels in one unit of time, or distance by time.
Down
- 1. The highest part of a transverse wave.
- 2. The number of complete waves that pass a given point in certain amount of time.
- 3. The part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together.
- 5. A transverse wave that can't travel through liquids.
- 6. A longitudinal wave that moves faster than any other seismic wave.
- 8. A wave that move the medium parallel to direction in which wave travels.
- 10. The lowest part of a transverse wave.
- 12. A wave produced by an earthquake.
