Across
  1. 2. This sound has a large amplitude
  2. 7. The time it takes for one wave to occur
  3. 9. The unit used to measure loudness
  4. 13. A wave that vibrates parallel to the direction of the wave’s motion
  5. 14. When two waves of equal amplitude and wavelength pass through each other in opposite directions
  6. 17. How high or low a sound seems
  7. 20. The number of waves it takes to pass in a given amount of time
  8. 21. The highest point on a transverse wave
  9. 23. When the crest of one wave overlaps the trough of another
  10. 24. When the crest of one wave overlaps the crest of another
  11. 25. Traveling at the speed of sound
Down
  1. 1. Sound travels the fastest in this medium
  2. 3. This sound has a short wavelength
  3. 4. A wave that vibrates perpendicular to the direction of the wave’s motion
  4. 5. The bending of waves around boundaries or through openings
  5. 6. The matter a wave travels through
  6. 8. A change in sound pitch caused by the motion of the sound source, the listener, or both
  7. 10. The distance from crest to crest
  8. 11. Sound travels the slowest in this medium
  9. 12. The rate at which a wave’s energy flows through an area
  10. 13. This sound has a long wavelength
  11. 15. The distance from the equilibrium to the crest
  12. 16. A rhythmic disturbance that carries energy through matter or space
  13. 18. This sound has a small amplitude
  14. 19. This occurs when an object breaks the sound barrier
  15. 22. The lowest point on a transverse wave
