Across
- 3. how many waves are created every second ( measured in hertz(HZ)
- 5. when waves spread out to fill the space through which they are moving
- 6. the parts of a longitudinal wave that are the farthest apart
- 10. A disturbance that transfers from place to place
- 11. The highest point on a transverse wave
- 13. the distance between two similar parts of a wave
- 16. when one wave hits another , their amplitude combines to make new one
- 18. A form of measuring frequency (# of waves created per second)
- 19. The Specific direction that a transverse wave is vibrating
- 20. The maximum disturbance from the rest position that the medium moves in a wave
Down
- 1. The material a mechanical wave goes through
- 2. A repeated back and forth or up and down motion that gives energy to a wave
- 4. The parts of a longitudinal wave That are closest together
- 7. A transverse wave of pure energy that can through both a medium and empty space
- 8. A type of wave where the medium moves perpendicular to the direction the energy is moving in
- 9. A type of wave where the medium moves parallel(horizontal)to the direction the energy is moving in
- 12. Wave A disturbance in matter that carries energy from one place to the other
- 14. Totally empty space
- 15. When a waves changes direction because it goes into a new medium
- 17. The lowest point on a transverse wave
