Across
- 1. Part of a longitudinal wave where the particles in the medium are closer together.
- 6. The maximum displacement of a wave from its rest position.
- 7. The number of waves passing a point every second.
- 10. The height of the wave, measured from the rest position (the middle).
- 12. A wave which oscillates in a direction that is at 90 degrees to the direction that energy is being transferred.
- 13. The time it takes for a wave to complete one cycle.
Down
- 2. Part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spaced further apart.
- 3. The distance measured from one peak to the next peak.
- 4. The number of complete wave cycles per second.
- 5. A wave which oscillates in a direction that is parallel to the direction that energy is being transferred.
- 8. The distance between two consecutive corresponding points on a wave trace.
- 9. The highest point on a transverse wave, also called a peak.
- 11. The lowest point on a transverse wave.
