Across
- 5. makes the particles in a medium move parallel to the direction that the wave travels.
- 6. the number of wave lengths that pass by in a second
- 7. a wave that can travel through empty space and through matter.
- 8. bouncing of a wave off a surface
- 10. The regions of a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart.
- 13. a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.
- 14. change in direction of a wave
- 16. when a wave is reflected from a surface
- 17. The lowest points on transverse waves.
- 18. A wave that can only travel through matter.
Down
- 1. when waves overlap or combine forming a new wave
- 2. a wave that travels by the edge of an object or through an opening
- 3. disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another.
- 4. Regions of a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together.
- 9. passage of light through an object
- 11. distance from one point on a wave to the same point on the next wave
- 12. transfer of energy by a wave to the medium through which it travels
- 15. maximum distance that a wave moves from it's resting point
- 18. A material in which a wave travels.
- 19. The highest points on a transverse wave.
