Across
  1. 4. The number of cycles per second in HZ
  2. 8. The repeated portion of the motion
  3. 9. The material through which the disturbance is moving
  4. 10. Motion that goes in one direction
  5. 11. Waves that are capable of traveling through a vacuum
  6. 12. a state in which opposing forces or influences are balanced
  7. 14. The bottom of a wave pattern
  8. 19. A loud explosive noise caused by a shock wave
  9. 21. A disturbance that is created by a vibrating object and subsequently travels through a medium from one location to another.
  10. 22. longitudinal and transverse motions in the medium
  11. 23. The length of time for one cycle
  12. 24. A force that tries to return an object to equilibrium
  13. 25. The max. distance the motion moves from its center position
  14. 26. Any motion that is repetitive
  15. 28. When two waves interact while traveling along an object
  16. 29. When one object vibrating naturally interacts with a second object vibrating unnaturally
  17. 30. When a wave is not confined to a given space along the medium.
Down
  1. 1. When a wave encounters an object and it spreads waves around it
  2. 2. A disturbance that travels through a medium
  3. 3. The peak of a wave pattern
  4. 5. A wave changes direction as it passes through an object
  5. 6. The separation of visible light into its different colors.
  6. 7. A wave that encounters an object and bounces off of it
  7. 13. All visible colors
  8. 15. A narrow band of wavelengths by which humans can see
  9. 16. A strong pressure wave in any elastic medium such as air, water, or a solid substance
  10. 17. An upward shift of frequency that produces a moving source of waves
  11. 18. Chemicals that are capable of selectively absorbing one or more frequency of white light
  12. 20. The mix of ROYGBIV--or all colors.
  13. 27. A wave vibrating at right angles to the direction of its propagation
