Characteristics of Waves

Across
  1. 3. the distance over which the shape of a periodic wave repeats (the distance between one crest and the next crest)
  2. 4. a substance through which energy is transmitted in the form of waves
  3. 9. a wave in which the particles of the medium move at right angles (perpendicular) to the direction the wave travels
  4. 10. the capacity to do work
Down
  1. 1. a wave in which the particles of the medium move back and forth in the same direction (parallel) as the wave travels through the medium
  2. 2. one half of the full range of motion of an oscillation or wave
  3. 5. a force that tends to shorten or squeeze something (decreasing volume)
  4. 6. distance traveled by a wave per unit of time
  5. 7. the number of complete cycles of a repeating phenomenon over a specified time interval
  6. 8. a disturbance or oscillation that travels from one point to another and transports energy
