Types of Waves
Across
- 2. one complete motion of the repeating pattern of a wave
- 3. places in a longitudinal wave where the particles of matter are closest together
- 6. a wave in which matter moves in a pattern parallel to the direction the wave travels
- 8. a wave made of a single disturbance that does not repeat
- 9. a disturbance that carries energy, but not matter, from one place to another
- 10. highest points of a transverse wave
- 12. a wave in which particles of matter move back and forth
- 13. matter a mechanical wave moves through
Down
- 1. a wave in which the matter moves in a pattern perpendicular to the direction that the wave travels
- 4. lowest points of a transverse wave
- 5. a wave in which the matter moves in a circular pattern that is sometimes parallel and sometimes perpendicular to the direction that the wave travels
- 7. places in a longitudinal wave where the particles of matter are farthest apart
- 11. a move fans at sporting events do to share their energy and enthusiasm with the spectators around them
- 12. a presentation of a situation which makes important aspects easier to see
