Across
  1. 4. A wave in which the disturbance of space or matter moves in a direction that is perpendicular to the direction of transfer of energy.
  2. 5. An area in a longitudinal wave where the particles in the medium are farthest apart.
  3. 11. A wave resulting from the vibration of matter, such as an ocean wave or a sound wave.
  4. 12. The highest point of a wave.
  5. 13. The quality of a sound, as determined by its frequency; described as high or low.
  6. 15. A wave that combines properties of longitudinal and transverse waves.
  7. 16. The lowest point of a wave.
Down
  1. 1. The distance from one wave crest to the next (or the distance from one trough to the next).
  2. 2. A wave of energy propagated in an electromagnetic field.
  3. 3. A wave in which the disturbance of space of matter is in the same direction as the transfer of energy.
  4. 6. To allow passage of energy or matter.
  5. 7. The distance from the midpoint of a wave to the crest (or trough) of the wave.
  6. 8. For a wave, the number of crests passing a given point per unit time.
  7. 9. A disturbance that carries energy through matter or space.
  8. 10. The material through which something travels.
  9. 12. An area in a longitudinal wave where the particles of a medium are closest together
  10. 14. The unit of frequency.
