word bank amplitude compression crest echo imaginary hertz longitudinal rarefaction reflection refraction solids transverse wave wavelength direction: find all the hidden words in the puzzle above that are defined in the table below. description word a disturbance in matter that transfers energy from place to place the distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves the number of complete waves that pass a given point in one second the unit of measure of the frequency a wave that disturbs the particles in the medium parallel to the direction of the wave travel a wave that disturbs the particles in the medium perpendicular to the direction of the wave travel a form of energy that is caused by the back and forth vibration of the particles. the region in a sound wave where the particles are pushed closer together the region in a sound wave where the particles are spread apart the most the characteristics of wave that determines the loudness of the sound the unit of measurement for the loudness of sound the name of the reflected sound wave a form of energy that travels in straight lines known as rays and allows us to see the bending of a light ray as it passes from one medium to another the bouncing back of a wave after it hits a surface

Explanation:

To solve this word search, we match each description to the corresponding wave - related term:

1. "A disturbance in matter that transfers energy from place to place" is "Wave".
2. "The distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves" is "Wavelength".
3. "The number of complete waves that pass a given point in one second" is "Frequency".
4. "The unit of measure of the frequency" is "Hertz".
5. "A wave that disturbs the particles in the medium parallel to the direction of the wave travel" is "Longitudinal".
6. "A wave that disturbs the particles in the medium perpendicular to the direction of the wave travel" is "Transverse".
7. "A form of energy that is caused by the back and forth vibration of the particles" is "Sound".
8. "The region in a sound wave where the particles are pushed closer together" is "Compression".
9. "The region in a sound wave where the particles are spread apart the most" is "Rarefaction".
10. "The characteristics of wave that determines the loudness of the sound" is "Amplitude".
11. "The unit of measurement for the loudness of sound" is "Decibel".
12. "The name of the reflected sound wave" is "Echo".
13. "A form of energy that travels in straight lines known as rays and allows us to see" is "Light".
14. "The bending of a light ray as it passes from one medium to another" is "Refraction".
15. "The bouncing back of a wave after it hits a surface" is "Reflection".

We then find these words in the word search grid. For example, "Wave" can be found, "Wavelength" is in the grid, "Frequency" is present, "Hertz" is there, "Longitudinal" can be located, "Transverse" is in the puzzle, "Sound" is visible, "Compression" is present, "Rarefaction" can be found, "Amplitude" is there, "Decibel" is in the grid, "Echo" is present, "Light" is visible, "Refraction" can be located, and "Reflection" is in the puzzle.

Answer:

The hidden words are: Wave, Wavelength, Frequency, Hertz, Longitudinal, Transverse, Sound, Compression, Rarefaction, Amplitude, Decibel, Echo, Light, Refraction, Reflection.
