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