Across
- 2. The low point on a transverse wave.
- 4. Shortest distance between points where the wave pattern repeats itself.
- 7. High point on a transverse wave.
- 8. A wave disturbance that continues at a constant rate.
- 11. A wave disturbance that is parallel to the direction of the waves travel.
- 15. Change in the direction of waves at the boundary between two different mediums.
- 16. Time needed for an object to repeat one complete cycle of the motion.
- 17. Maximum distance the object moves from the equilibrium position.
- 18. A wave that disturbs the particles in the medium perpendicular to the direction of the waves travel.
- 19. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
Down
- 1. A wave that appears to be standing still.
- 3. Magnitude of the force exerted by a spring is equal to the spring constant times the distance the spring is stretched or compressed from its equilibrium position.
- 4. A single bump or disturbance that travels through a medium.
- 5. Motions that repeat in regular cycles.
- 6. A disturbance that carries energy through matter or space without transferring matter.
- 9. Pulse that strikes the boundary.
- 10. When forces are applied to a vibrating or oscillating object at time intervals equal to the period of oscillation.
- 12. Result of the superposition of two or more waves.
- 13. A line that represents the crest of a wave in two dimensions.
- 14. Number of complete oscillations a point on that wave makes each second.
