Across
  1. 4. When two waves travel in the same direction and are in phase with each other
  2. 7. the number of waves that pass a given point in one second-(measured in hertz)
  3. 8. the distance in the line of advance of a wave from any one point to the next point of corresponding phase
  4. 9. the spreading of waves as they pass through or around an obstacle.
  5. 11. the measure of the height of the wave
  6. 12. a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart
  7. 14. the perception of loudness from the intensity of a sound wave
  8. 16. the increase or decrease in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move towards or away from each other.
  9. 18. the change of direction of propagation of a wave when it meets a boundary
  10. 19. a disturbance in a medium that carries energy without a net movement of particles
  11. 20. a point on a surface wave where the displacement of the medium is at a maximum
Down
  1. 1. a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium.
  2. 2. the change in direction of a wave as it passes from one medium to another
  3. 3. type of wave in which the medium's vibration is parallel to the direction of the wave
  4. 5. a wave that oscillates perpendicularly to the direction of the wave's advance
  5. 6. occurs when waves come together so that they completely cancel each other out.
  6. 10. the opposite of a crest, so the minimum or lowest point in a cycle
  7. 13. a form of radiation that travel though the universe-(ex:light)
  8. 15. a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together
  9. 17. determined by the frequency of vibration of the sound waves that produce them
