7th-Grade Physical Science
Across
- 2. electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength shorter than a microwave but longer than visible light
- 4. the transfer of light energy to matter
- 6. what you see when you see all colors of light combined in equal proportions
- 10. energy caused by an object's vibrations
- 15. permitting light to pass through, but not images
- 18. A measure of the average energy of motion of the particles of a substance.
- 19. the bouncing back of a ray of light, sound, or heat when the ray hits a surface that it does not go through
- 21. impossible to see through; preventing the passage of light
- 22. the energy an object has due to its motion
- 27. horizontal distance between the crests or between the troughs of two adjacent waves
- 28. an electromagnetic wave slightly more energetic than visible light, or "above purple"
- 29. the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid in circular currents
Down
- 1. the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that you can see
- 3. the wave's height from the resting position to the crest
- 5. stored energy that results from the position or shape of an object
- 7. allowing light and images to pass through
- 8. A wave that requires no medium and can move through the vacuum of space.
- 9. energy released when atoms fuse or split apart
- 11. the electromagnetic wave with the lowest frequency and the longest wavelength
- 12. The bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another
- 13. a wave that requires a medium through which to travel
- 14. the transfer of energy via electromagnetic waves
- 16. electromagnetic wave with a frequency higher than radio waves but lower than infrared
- 17. the total energy of motion in the particles of a substance
- 20. a form of energy that is released when atoms combine to form molecules,or when the bonds that form molecules are broken
- 23. the electromagnetic wave with the highest frequency and the shortest wavelength
- 24. the direct transfer of heat from molecule to molecule
- 25. reflection of light in all directions when it strikes an irregular surface
- 26. the number of complete wavelengths that pass a point in a given time
