Across
  1. 3. Occurs when a wave strikes an object and bounces off it
  2. 6. Type of wave where particles move back and forth at right angles to the direction that the wave travels
  3. 8. The number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point each second
  4. 9. The bending of a wave around an object
  5. 10. High points of a transverse wave
  6. 11. Low points of a transverse wave
  7. 13. The more dense region of a longitudinal wave
  8. 15. Matter through which a wave travels
  9. 17. The process of two or more waves overlapping and combining to form a new wave
Down
  1. 1. The bending of a wave caused by a change in its speed as it travels from one medium to another
  2. 2. Type of wave pattern that forms when waves of equal wavelength and magnitude, but traveling in opposite directions, continuously interfere with each other
  3. 3. The less dense region of a longitudinal wave
  4. 4. The amount of time it takes one wavelength to pass a point
  5. 5. A repeating disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space
  6. 7. Type of wave where matter moves back and forth along the same direction that the wave travels
  7. 12. A measure of the size of the disturbance from a wave
  8. 14. The distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point just like it
  9. 16. Type of wave that can travel only through matter
