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