Across
  1. 1. : The bending of waves around an object.
  2. 4. : Distance between one point on a wave and the exact same place on the next wave.
  3. 7. The capacity to do work.
  4. 11. : A wave that does not require a medium to travel, for example, it can travel through a vacuum. Also called an EM wave.
  5. 13. : A wave in which the medium moves back and forth in the same direction as the wave.
  6. 14. : A wave in which the medium moves at right angles to the direction of the wave.
  7. 15. : A wave that requires a medium to travel.
Down
  1. 2. : How far the medium (crests and troughs, or compressions and rarefactions) moves from rest position (the place the medium is when not moving).
  2. 3. : When the particles of a longitudinal wave are far apart.
  3. 5. : The lowest point on a transverse wave.
  4. 6. : When a wave bends.
  5. 8. : How many waves go past a point in one second. Measured in hertz (Hz).
  6. 9. : When the particles of a longitudinal wave are close together.
  7. 10. : A disturbance that carries energy from one place to another.
  8. 12. : When a wave bounces off a surface.
  9. 13. : The highest point on a transverse wave.
