Across
- 3. A material through which a wave travels
- 7. A means of transferring energy from one point to another
- 9. Unit of measurement for frequency
- 10. Waves will bounce off barriers an angle equal to the angle they strike the barrier
- 11. Particles on the wave vibrate perpendicular to the direction that the wave is moving
Down
- 1. The number of waves passing each second; it is measured in Hertz
- 2. Particles on these waves vibrate parallel to the direction that the wave is moving (through a series of compressions and rarefactions)
- 4. The distance from a point on one wave to the identical point on the next wave (crest to crest)
- 5. Require a medium to travel through (Ex: water waves and sound waves)
- 6. Maximum displacement of a wave from the rest position or the size of the wave or how large the wave is
- 8. perception of the frequency of sound
- 12. a disturbance that travels through a medium as a longitudinal wave
