Across
- 2. Effect, The phenomenon where frequency changes when an observer moves towards or away from a sound source
- 4. A transverse, traveling wave created by oscillating electric and magnetic fields that work together
- 5. A point of minimum spacing between particles of a medium for longitudinal waves
- 10. Reflection of a sound wave that arrives after the direct sound.
- 14. The number of complete waves or cycles that occur in a specific unit of time
- 16. A disturbance or oscillation that travels through medium, transferring energy from one point to another
- 20. The repeating back-and-forth motion of a physical object or system
- 21. The lowest point of a transverse wave.
- 22. It is the shortest distance between points where the wave pattern repeats itself
- 24. The standard International System of Units (SI) for frequency
Down
- 1. The medium of this type of wave oscillates perpendicular to the direction that the wave travels
- 3. A phenomenon in which an external driving force causes an object to vibrate
- 6. Exact opposite of compression in a longitudinal wave
- 7. It is a disturbance that carries energy through matter or space
- 8. A unit that is used to measure the intensity of a sound wave
- 9. Waves where the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as the direction of the travelling wave
- 11. A repeating back-and-forth motion
- 12. The substance or material (solid, liquid, or gas) through which a wave travels and carries energy
- 13. Directly proportional to the frequency of a sound wave, it is the human perception of how high or low a sound is
- 15. The magnitude of the displacement from the equilibrium (resting) position
- 17. A transverse wave’s highest point
- 18. Speed, The speed at which energy is transferred through a mechanical wave
- 19. A mechanical wave that transfers energy through a medium (solid, liquid, gas) that you can hear
- 23. The time needed for an object to repeat one complete cycle of motion
