Across
- 1. he phenomenon that occurs when two waves meet while traveling along the same medium.
- 3. change in direction of propagation of any wave as a result of its traveling at different speeds at different points along the wave front.
- 5. a disturbance in a medium that carries energy without a net movement of particles
- 6. build up features on the surface of the Earth.
- 7. a decrease in the density of something.
- 9. wave vibrating in the direction of propagation.
- 10. a wave vibrating at right angles to the direction of its propagation.
- 11. a long depression less steep than a trench.
- 12. The process by which one substance, such as a solid or liquid, takes up another substance, such as a liquid or gas, through minute pores or spaces
- 13. A pressing or squeezing together.
- 14. abrupt change in the direction of propagation of a wave that strikes the boundary between different mediums.
- 15. A passage or transfer, as of a disease from one individual to another or of neutral impulses from one neuron to another
- 16. the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position
Down
- 1. Pertaining to, governed by, or in accordance with, mechanics, or the laws of motion
- 2. the distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.
- 4. science of charge and of the forces and fields associated with charge.
- 6. The highest surface part of a wave
- 8. occurs when waves come together so that they completely cancel each other out.
- 17. the spreading of waves around obstacles.
