Waves

2. these waves only travel through matter
3. this wave makes the particles in matter move back and forth at right angles to the direction that the wave is traveling
5. this wave makes the particles in matter move back and forth in the same direction the wave is traveling
6. earthquake waves; a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves
9. half the distance between a crest and trough
12. part of a compressional wave that is spread apart
13. high point of a transverse wave
14. a disturbance that moves through matter or empty space; carries energy, not matter
15. this is carried by waves
16. these waves travel as vibrations through matter

1. part of a compressional wave that is squeezed together
4. this wave that can travel through matter and empty space
7. low point of a transverse wave
8. the number of wavelengths that pass by a point in one second
10. the distance between one point on a wave and the nearest point that is moving with the same speed and direction
11. wavelength times frequency
