Across
  1. 5. Are locations where the interfering waves always cancel in a standing wave
  2. 6. The process of two or more waves overlapping and combining to form a new wave
  3. 8. Occurs when a wave strikes an object and bounces off it
  4. 9. The more dense region of a longitudinal wave
  5. 12. A repeating disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space
  6. 15. The bending of a wave around an object
  7. 18. The distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point just like it
  8. 19. The high points of a transverse wave
  9. 20. Is matter through which a wave travels
Down
  1. 1. A special type of wave pattern that forms when waves equal in wavelength and amplitude but traveling in opposite directions continuously interfere with each other
  2. 2. The measure of the size of the disturbance from a wave
  3. 3. Matter in the medium moves back and forth along the same direction that the wave travels
  4. 4. Is a result of reflecting sound wave
  5. 7. The less dense region of a longitudinal wave
  6. 10. Waves that can travel only through matter
  7. 11. The bending of a wave caused by a change in speed as it travels from one medium to another
  8. 13. The low points of a transverse wave
  9. 14. The process by which an object is made to vibrate by absorbing energy at its natural frequencies
  10. 16. The ______ of a wave is the number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point each second
  11. 17. Wave that particles in the medium moves back and forth at right angles to the direction that the wave travels
