Vol2 Mod2 Waves

4. the distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point just like it.
7. a disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring matter.
8. a material in which a wave travels.
9. a wave in which the disturbance is parallel to the direction the wave travels.
11. the change in direction of a wave when it travels by the edge of an object or through an opening.
13. the transfer of energy from a wave to the medium through which it travels.
14. the maximum extent of the repeating quantity from equilibrium.
15. how you perceive the energy of a sound wave.
16. the perception of how high or low a sound is; related to the frequency of a sound wave.

1. a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.
2. the amount of energy that passes through a square meter of space in one second.
3. a wave that can travel only through matter.
5. the bouncing of a wave off a surface.
6. a longitudinal wave that can travel only through matter.
10. the passage of a wave through a medium.
12. the number of times the pattern repeats in a given amount of time.
