Types of Waves
Across
- 2. this type of energy travels as transverse waves
- 6. when 2 or more waves are passing through the same medium to create a new wave pattern
- 7. the areas of a longitudinal wave that are squeezed together
- 8. the areas of a longitudinal wave that are stretched out
- 10. measured by the compressions of a longitudinal wave, makes it have more energy
Down
- 1. this type of energy travels as longitudinal waves
- 2. these are mechanical waves that are caused by vibrations that travel through a medium (matter)
- 3. the unit of measurement for frequency
- 4. these are waves that move in an up & down pattern
- 5. when an object vibrates strongly at its max amplitude of a certain frequency
- 9. the amount of waves produced in a given period of time
- 11. the higher the frequency, we hear more of this
