  1. 6. an observed change in the frequency of a wave when the source or observer is moving
  2. 7. the distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave
  3. 9. in physics, the time that it takes to complete a cycle or wave oscillation to occur
  4. 11. waves that cause the particles in a medium to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave's motion
  5. 13. The matter through which a wave travels
  6. 14. the combination of two or more waves that result in a single wave
  7. 15. a pattern of vibration that stimulates a wave that is standing still
  8. 16. a superposition of two or more waves that produces an intensity equal to the difference of the intensities of the individual waves
  9. 17. the number of cycles or vibrations per unit of time
  10. 18. the bending of a wave front as the wave front passes between two substances in which the speed of the wave differs
Down
  1. 1. the bouncing back of a ray of light, sound, or heat when the ray hits a surface that it does not go through
  2. 2. a wave that consists of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which radiate outward at the speed of light
  3. 3. waves that require a medium
  4. 4. the maximum distance that the particles of a wave's medium vibrate from their rest position
  5. 5. a superposition of two or more waves that produces an intensity equal to the sum of the intensities of the individual waves
  6. 8. low points of transverse waves
  7. 10. waves in which the motion of the particles is perpendicular to the motion of the wave
  8. 12. a change in the direction of a wave when the wave finds an obstacle or an edge
  9. 19. high points of transverse waves
