7
A seismic wave that is a transverse wave and can only travel through solids
8
The number of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time
9
A mechanical wave that moves the medium in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the wave
10
A part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together
11
The highest part of a transverse wave
12
A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
13
The bouncing back of an object or wave when it hits a surface where it cannot pass through
14
The bending of waves as they move around a barrier or pass through an opening
