Across
- 5. The highness or lowness of a sound, which is determined by the frequency of the sound waves.
- 6. a system that uses reflected sound waves to detect and locate objects underwater.
- 7. The bending of waves around a barrier.
- 11. The ability of two or more waves to combine to form a new wave.
- 13. The distance between identical points on two adjacent waves; for example, the distance between two crests or two troughs.
- 15. In a wave, the distance from the rest position of the medium to either the crest or trough.
Down
- 1. The number of wave crests that pass a point during one second; expressed in hertz.
- 2. In compressional waves, the dense area of the wave.
- 3. The bending of waves, caused by changing their speed.
- 4. Occurs when a wave strikes an object and bounces off.
- 8. In compressional waves, the less dense area of the wave.
- 9. The highest point of a wave.
- 10. the lowest point of a wave.
- 12. A material through which a wave travels.
- 14. The tendency of an object to vibrate at the same frequency as another vibrating source.
