Across
- 2. the number of waves passing by a certain point
- 4. the distance between one wave crest and the next
- 8. when wave energy strikes a new medium and passes through it
- 9. a disturbance that travels through a medium
- 12. the energy input to the system which causes the wave disturbance
- 14. the position of the particles in the medium when they are undisturbed by energy
Down
- 1. a detector of wave energy
- 3. when wave energy bounces off a medium, causing the wave energy to change direction
- 5. a measure of the distance from the rest position to the crest
- 6. the matter through which waves travel
- 7. a curved shape that can be used to represent a wave
- 10. when wave energy is trapped in a medium and doesn't pass through it
- 11. the top or peak of a wave
- 13. the bottom of a wave
