Across
- 4. The maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation
- 7. A wave whose oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave
- 10. The net effect of the combination of two or more wave trains moving on an intersecting path
- 12. A material that allows the movement of energy and waves to pass. It can be a solid, liquid, or gas
- 13. A region in a longitudinal wave where particles are the closest together
- 14. A wave that vibrates parallel to the direction of the wave
- 17. When a wave is reflected, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence
- 18. The top-most point of a transverse wave
- 20. The change in the direction of a wave between different mediums
Down
- 1. The transfer of energy of a wave to the medium that it is travelling through
- 2. The region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are the farthest apart
- 3. The distance of corresponding points between two consecutive waves
- 5. Waves that require a medium to travel through
- 6. When a wave passes through a given point or medium
- 8. The process of light bending around an obstacle or spreading out after travelling through a small slit
- 9. Waves that do not require a medium to travel through
- 11. The bending of waves and change in speed due to the change in one medium to another
- 15. The number of waves that pass through a certain point in a given time frame
- 16. A vibration or disturbance that can travel through space or a medium
- 19. The lowest point of a transverse wave
