Across
- 2. A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
- 4. lines that never intersect
- 7. the highest point of a transverse wave
- 9. the lowest point of a transverse wave
- 11. Material/matter through which a wave travels
- 12. where the particles of the medium are close together.
- 15. A wave that requires a medium through which to travel
- 16. at an angle of 90°; a right angle
- 17. the speed at which a wave travels through a medium
- 19. a part in a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart
- 20. straight up and down
- 22. Horizontal distance between the crests or between the troughs of two adjacent waves
- 23. Occurs when an object causes a wave to change direction and bend around it
- 24. Anything that has mass and takes up space
- 25. The bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another
Down
- 1. The bouncing back of a wave when it hits a surface through which it cannot pass.
- 3. transverse waves that carry energy without a medium
- 5. the height of a wave's crest
- 6. the number of complete wavelengths that pass a point in a given time
- 8. the place where something begins
- 10. to move from one place to another
- 13. the ability to do work
- 14. Going straight across from side to side
- 18. Wave that the particles move backwards and forwards in the same direction as the energy transfer
- 21. The position in the wave where particles are not disturbed; half way between the crest and trough.
