Across
  1. 4. the lowest points on a transverse wave
  2. 7. the regions of the longitudinal wave that are closest together
  3. 8. the maximum distance that the wave moves from its rest position
  4. 10. makes the particles in a medium move parallel to the direction that the wave travels
  5. 12. a wave that can only travel through matter
  6. 15. the change in direction of a wave when it travels by the edge of an object or through an opening
  7. 16. the bouncing of a wave of a surface
  8. 18. the regions of a longitudinal wave the particles are farthest apart
  9. 19. the distance from one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave
Down
  1. 1. the highest points on a transverse wave
  2. 2. is a wave that can travel through empty space and through matter
  3. 3. the passage of light through an object
  4. 5. the change in direction of a wave that occurs as the wave changes speed when moving from one medium to another
  5. 6. when a wave is reflected from a surface, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence
  6. 9. occurs when waves that overlap combine, forming a new wave
  7. 11. a disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring matter
  8. 13. the transfer of energy by a wave to the medium through which it travels
  9. 14. a material in which a wave travels
  10. 17. the number of wavelengths that pass by a point each second
  11. 20. a wave in the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels
