Across
  1. 3. usable power that can be transferred or converted to different forms, but can't be created or destroyed; the ability to do work
  2. 4. the highness or lowness of a sound, which depends on the frequency of its sound wave
  3. 5. the type of wave that can only travel through a medium (solid, liquid, gas)
  4. 7. how loud a sound is, which depends on the amplitude of its sound wave
  5. 10. the type of wave in which a wave's medium is compressed (squeezed) in the same direction as the movement of the wave
  6. 14. the low point of a wave
  7. 15. the type of energy in movement/motion
  8. 17. the length of one wave, can be measured as the distance from the center of one peak (crest) to the center of the next peak (crest)
  9. 18. a point where a wave crosses the resting line
  10. 19. the high point of a wave
  11. 20. something you can observe about an object, material, or system
  12. 23. the rate (how often) of something that repeats over and over
Down
  1. 1. a quick back-and-forth movement
  2. 2. a substance or material (solid, liquid, gas)
  3. 6. a back and forth pattern of motion that transfers energy
  4. 8. another name for a compression wave
  5. 9. the type of wave in which the movement of the wave's medium is perpendicular (sideways) to the movement of the wave traveling through the medium
  6. 11. a mathematical relationship where if one variable increases, the other decreases (example: frequency vs wavelength)
  7. 12. the reflection of sound off a distant surface
  8. 13. the height of the peak/crest of a wave above the resting line
  9. 16. to bounce back
  10. 20. a repeating and recognizable feature
  11. 21. a short burst that travels as a wave
  12. 22. a regular pattern of motion
