Periodic Harmonic Motion
Across
- 2. The displacement of the particles of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave
- 4. the point on the medium that exhibits the maximum amount of positive displacement from the rest position
- 6. unit for frequency
- 10. the maximiun displacement of a particle of the medium from the rest
- 11. unit for period
- 14. a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy
- 15. the time it takes for an object to complete one cycle
- 17. the spreading of waves around obstacles
- 20. the point on the medium that exhibits the maximum amount of negative displacement from the rest position
Down
- 1. the shortest distance between two points
- 3. the horizontal line in the middle of the wave.
- 5. The number of cycles in one second
- 7. a property applying to transverse waves that specifies the geometrical orientation of the oscillations
- 8. A disturbance that propagates through a material medium or space
- 9. The displacement of the particles of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave
- 12. One repetition of the motion
- 13. the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium
- 16. system amplifies sound waves whose frequency matches one of its own natural frequencies of vibration
- 18. the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another caused by its change in speed.
- 19. a longitudinal wave propagated by the elastic compression of the medium
