Across
  1. 2. these waves only travel through matter
  2. 3. this wave makes the particles in matter move back and forth at right angles to the direction that the wave is traveling
  3. 5. this wave makes the particles in matter move back and forth in the same direction the wave is traveling
  4. 6. earthquake waves; a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves
  5. 9. half the distance between a crest and trough
  6. 12. part of a compressional wave that is spread apart
  7. 13. high point of a transverse wave
  8. 14. a disturbance that moves through matter or empty space; carries energy, not matter
  9. 15. this is carried by waves
  10. 16. these waves travel as vibrations through matter
Down
  1. 1. part of a compressional wave that is squeezed together
  2. 4. this wave that can travel through matter and empty space
  3. 7. low point of a transverse wave
  4. 8. the number of wavelengths that pass by a point in one second
  5. 10. the distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point that is moving with the same speed and direction
  6. 11. wavelength times frequency
