Waves
Across
- 2. distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point moving with the same speed and direction.
- 4. for a transverse wave, 1/2 of the distance between a crest and a trough.
- 7. needs a medium.
- 8. number of wavelengths that pass a given point in one second, measured in hertz (Hz.
- 9. mechanical wave that causes particles in matter to move back and forth along the direction the wave travels.
Down
- 1. something a wave has to travel through.
- 3. waves that can travel through an empty space(includes infrared waves,visible light waves,etc)
- 5. mechanical wave that causes particles in matter to move at right angles to the direction the wave travels.
- 6. disturbance that moves through matter and space and carries energy.
