Waves and Oscillations
Across
- 3. Number of complete vibrations per second measured at a fixed point
- 5. One which moves as a periodic, repetitious disturbance in a medium
- 6. Highest point of each wave motion
- 7. part of wave moves backward from boundary in old medium
- 8. Maximum displacement from the rest or equilibrium position
- 10. Those consisting of periodic motion of matter
- 13. Result of superposition
- 14. Shortest distance between 2 points where a wave pattern repeats itself.
- 17. Causes particles in medium to move to the direction of the wave
- 18. change in direction of waves at boundary between media
- 20. A single disturbance that travels through a medium
Down
- 1. A mixture of transverse and longitudinal waves
- 2. Point of maximum amplitude when 2 pulses with equal displacements in the same direction meet
- 4. Those that consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that move at the speed of light through space
- 9. Causes particles in medium to vibrate to the direction of motion
- 11. Point that is undisturbed when 2 pulses with equal but opposite displacements
- 12. Wave in which nodes and antidnodes are stationary
- 15. Lowest point of each wave motion
- 16. Wave-like behaviour of particles, such as electrons
- 19. Shortest time interval during which the motion repeats itself
