Waves
Across
- 3. the combination of waves in the same location, resulting in a single wave
- 4. type of interference that results in a larger wave
- 6. distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave
- 9. disturbances that carry energy through matter or space
- 14. type of wave that doesn't require a medium
- 15. the number of wave cycles that pass in a given time
- 16. the time it takes a complete cycle or wave oscillation to occur
- 17. the bending of waves as the pass from one medium to another
- 19. type of wave where the motion of the particles in the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave
Down
- 1. type of interference that results in a smaller wave
- 2. the bending of waves as they pass an edge or obstacle
- 5. type of wave where the motion of the particles in the medium is perpendicular to the motion of the waves as a whole
- 7. highest point on a wave
- 8. lowest point on a wave
- 10. maximum distance particles are displaced from their resting position
- 11. type of boundary where a reflected wave is exactly like the original wave but traveling in the opposite direction
- 12. type of waves that require a medium
- 13. the bouncing back of a wave when it meets a surface or boundary that it is not able to pass through
- 18. type of boundary where a reflected wave is turned upside down as it travels back in the other direction
