Waves
Across
- 2. the bending of a wave around an object.
- 5. a matter through which a wave travels.
- 6. wave particles in the medium move back and forth at right angles to the direction that the wave travels
- 7. the process by which an object is made to vibrate by absorbing energy at its natural frequencies.
- 10. locations on standing waves where the interfering waves always cancel
- 12. the distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point just like it.
- 13. waves matter in the medium moves back and forth along the same direction that the wave travels.
- 14. Speed Formula v=f(lamda).
- 16. measure of the size of the disturbance from a wave.
- 18. s repeating disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space.
- 20. a more dense region of a longitudinal wave.
- 21. Wave a special type of wave pattern that forms when waves equal in wavelength to each other.
Down
- 1. the less dense region of a longitudinal wave.
- 3. the number of wavelengths that pass a fixed point each second.
- 4. the bending of a wave caused by a change in its speed as it travels from one medium to another.
- 8. the low points of a transverse wave.
- 9. waves waves that can travel only through matter
- 11. the process of two or more wave overlapping and combining to form a new wave.
- 15. occurs when a wave strikes an object and bounces off it.
- 17. the amount of time it takes one wavelength to pass a point.
- 19. the high points of transverse waves.
