  2. 4. speed of a _____ wave is 3 x 10^8 m/s
  3. 5. type of wave created as a result of vibrations between an electric and magnetic field
  4. 7. the duration of time of one cycle in a wave (i.e., reciprocal of frequency)
  5. 9. type of wave where particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation
  6. 10. distance between two consecutive similar points of a wave
  7. 12. waves which oscillate in the direction parallel to the direction in which the wave travels
Down
  1. 2. a wave (e.g., light, sound)bounces off a boundary and returns into the original medium, changing its direction
  2. 3. a disturbance that travels through a medium or space, transporting energy
  3. 6. maximum amount of displacement of a particle from its rest position
  4. 8. the bending of a wave when traveling from one medium to another
  5. 11. speed of a _____ wave is 343 m/s
