Across
- 2. is the change in direction of a wave when it travels by the edge of an object or through an opening
- 6. number of wavelengths that pass by each second
- 10. transfer of energy by a wave to the medium
- 12. particles are farthest apart
- 16. occurs when waves that overlap combine forming a new wave
- 17. bouncing off a wave off a surface
Down
- 1. passage of light through an object
- 3. lowest points on a transverse wave
- 4. wave that can through matter
- 5. distance from one point of a wave to another
- 7. wave that can travel through empty space or through matter
- 8. particles of a medium are closet together
- 9. wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels
- 11. particles in a medium that move parallel
- 13. maximum distance that a wave moves from rest
- 14. highest points on a transverse wave
- 15. change in direction of a wave that occurs as the wave changes speed
