Across
- 2. What is the definition for when a wave travels through an object?
- 3. Occurs when a wave transfers energy into an object.
- 5. In what wave does the medium vibrate parallel to the direction that the wave travels?
- 10. Area where particles are spread apart
- 13. When an object vibrates by absorbing energy from another object vibrating at its natural frequency.
- 14. The highest point of a wave.
- 18. What is the definition for when a wave bends as it goes from one medium to another?
- 20. This interference creates a wave with a smaller amplitude.
- 21. What is the area where particles are close together?
- 22. What wave only transmits energy through matter?
Down
- 1. Occurs when a wave bends around a barrier.
- 4. What is the distance from one point on a wave to the next identical point?
- 6. What do you call the matter waves travel through?
- 7. In what wave does the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction that the wave travels?
- 8. The distance a wave travels per unit of time; shows how fast a wave's energy moves through a medium.
- 9. What wave transmits energy through matter or space?
- 11. The distance from the resting point to the crest or trough.
- 12. This interference creates a wave with a larger amplitude.
- 15. What is the definition for when a wave bounces off a surface?
- 16. Lowest point of a wave
- 17. What do you call a rhythmic disturbance that transfers energy?
- 19. The number of crests that pass a certain point in one second measured in HERTZ.
