Waves

2. The material a mechanical wave moves through________
4. When one wave hits another wave, their amplitudes combine and make a new wave_________
7. A type of wave where the medium moves perpendicular (vertical) to the direction the energy is moving.__________
8. a disturbance in matter that carries energy from one place to another.___________
9. A type of wave where the medium moves parallel (horizontal) to the direction the energy is moving. Sound is this type of wave.___________
11. A repeated back and forth or up and down motion that gives energy to a wave. Also called "oscillation"_________
14. The parts of a longitudinal wave that are closest together_________

1. The maximum distance from the rest position that the medium moves in a wave_________
3. A transverse wave of pure energy that can go through both a medium and empty space (vacuum). Light is this kind of wave.________
5. The parts of a longitudinal wave that are spread apart__________
6. The lowest point of a transverse wave__________
10. A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place_________
12. The distance between two similar parts of a wave________
13. The highest point on a transverse wave__________
