Across
  1. 3. the number of wave repetition's per second
  2. 5. as sound waves propagate they lose energy in the form of:
  3. 7. concentration of force which increases during compression phase of wave propagation
  4. 10. the length of time needed for one wave cycle
  5. 11. A form of ultrasound that can detect and measure blood flow
  6. 12. Scanning format that produces a rectangular display
  7. 13. the distance measured for one wave repetition
  8. 14. waves that propagate by particle motion in the same direction as wave propagation direction
  9. 15. scanning format where pulses originate from different starting points but each point travels in a different direction
Down
  1. 1. the principle of converting energy by applying pressure to a crystal
  2. 2. waves that propagate by particle motion perpendicular to wave propagation direction
  3. 4. scanning format where each pulse originates from the same starting point but go in different directions
  4. 6. Waves that require a medium to propagate
  5. 8. sound wave frequency greater than 20,000 Hz
  6. 9. waves that can propagate in a medium or a vacuum
