unit 5
Across
- 2. - material in which a mechanical wave travels
- 7. wave- travels only through matter
- 9. lowest point on a transverse wave
- 11. number of wavelengths that pass by a point each second
- 12. region of a longitudinal wave where the particles in the medium are closest
- 13. maximum distance particles in a medium move from their rest position as waves pass through the medium
- 15. bouncing off a wave off a surface
- 16. the next wave.
Down
- 1. distance from one point on a wave to the same point
- 3. wave- can travel through empty space and through
- 4. ability to cause change
- 5. wave- disturbance is perpendicular to the direction of the wave
- 6. disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another
- 8. highest point on a transverse wave
- 10. wave- makes the particles in a medium move parallel to the direction of the wave
- 14. - region of a longitudinal wave where the particles are farthest apart
