Across
  1. 2. A wave disturbance that continues at a constant rate.
  2. 5. When forces are applied to a vibrating or oscillating object at time intervals equal to the period of oscillation.
  3. 6. Maximum distance the object moves from the equilibrium position.
  4. 8. Result of the superposition of two or more waves.
  5. 11. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
  6. 12. A wave that disturbs the particles in the medium perpendicular to the direction of the waves travel.
  7. 13. A disturbance that carries energy through matter or space without transferring matter.
  8. 14. motion Motions that repeat in regular cycles.
  9. 16. Shortest distance between points where the wave pattern repeats itself.
  10. 17. The low point on a traverse wave.
  11. 18. Number of complete oscillations a point on that wave makes each second.
  12. 19. Change in the direction of waves at the boundary between two different mediums.
  13. 20. A wave disturbance that is parallel to the direction of the waves travel.
Down
  1. 1. Magnitude of the force exerted by a spring is equal to the spring constant times the distance the spring is stretched or compressed from its equilibrium position.
  2. 3. Pulse that strikes the boundary.
  3. 4. A single bump or disturbance that travels through a medium.
  4. 7. Time needed for an object to repeat one complete cycle of the motion.
  5. 9. High point on a transverse wave.
  6. 10. A line that represents the crest of a wave in two dimensions.
  7. 15. A wave that appears to be standing still.
