  1. 5. To push something together (like springs in longitudinal wave demo)
  2. 6. The low point of a wave
  3. 8. Back and forth pattern of motion that transfers energy
  4. 12. The distance from rest to crest or rest to trough.
  5. 14. Energy of motion
Down
  1. 1. The length of one wave; can be measured as the distance from the center of one peak to the center of the next
  2. 2. Speed in a given direction
  3. 3. A wave in which the movement of the wave's medium is perpendicular to the movement of the wave traveling through the medium
  4. 4. A wave that moves a medium parallel (in the direction) to the direction the wave is traveling)
  5. 7. A rate of something that repeats over and over; the number of complete waves that pass in a certain period of time
  6. 9. The high point of a wave
  7. 10. The bouncing back of waves off a surface it can't pass through
  8. 11. A point where a wave crosses it's resting line; a point of zero amplitude
  9. 13. A short burst that travels as a wave
