First of all, the scientific term for a barrier is called a "fixed end". And when a wave hits a fixed end, it reflects on the opposite side. Also, the amplitude decreases due to friction.

Diffraction occurs when waves around the edge of a barrier?
Diffraction is phenomena that occurs when a wave encounters an obstacle. This happens when a wave reaches an obstacle that is comparable in size to it.
What is a wave that strikes a barrier called?
its called a reflected wave because just like a reflection the wave bounces back of the barrier
The 4 Basic Wave interactions are?
The four basic wave interactions are: wavelength, trough, crest, and amplitude.
Which describes the change in the wave as it encounters the barriers?
Refraction.
A wave barrier is produced when a wave source moves?
faster than the wave it produces
When a wave strikes a solid barrier it behaves like a basketball hitting a backboard. This wave behavior is called?
The strikes of a solid barrier wave behavior is called a reflection.
