waves vocabulary

2. occurs when two waves of the same frequency and amplitude are moving in opposite and interfere with each other
5. parallel to the direction in which the waves travels and displacement of the medium is in the same
7. a wave the oscillates perpendicularly to the direction of the waves advance
10. the maximum displacement of a wave from its neutral or equilibrium position
12. the substance through which a waves can propagate
13. the movement of disturbances that travel from one region of space to another
14. represents the maximum height of the waves which is the point of greatest positive displacement from the rest position
15. the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time
16. occurs when the maxima of two waves add together

1. a wave that transfers energy from one place to another through a medium
3. occurs when waves come together so that they completely cancel each other out
4. the minimum or lowest point of the wave
6. a back and forth motion of an object between two points of deformation
8. describes how long the wave
9. the time its takes to complete one
11. a restoring force whose magnitude is directly proportional to the distance of the object
