CP5 EM Waves
Across
- 3. Vibrations of voltage and current in radio aerials.
- 6. Electromagnetic radiation with a shorter wavelength than visible light.
- 7. An imaginary line at right angles to a surface where a ray of light hits it.
- 10. The change in direction when a wave changes speed going from one medium into another.
- 11. A place where there is no matter at all.
- 13. The order colours of the visible spectrum from long to short wavelength.
- 16. Cancer treatment in which a patient is given gamma radiation to kill the cancer cells.
- 17. A hazard of receiving high frequency electromagnetic waves.
- 18. Electromagnetic waves that can be detected by the human eye.
- 20. The entire frequency range of electromagnetic waves.
- 22. Deoxyribonucleic acid. Chemical that makes up genes and chromosomes.
Down
- 1. Absorbing radiation of one wavelength and re-emitting at a visible wavelength.
- 2. Electromagnetic radiation with a longer wavelength than infrared radiation.
- 4. Waves that all travel at the same speed in a vacuum, and are all transverse.
- 5. Electromagnetic radiation we feel as heat and has a longer wavelength than visible light.
- 8. A change in the DNA instructions in a cell.
- 9. The boundary between two materials.
- 10. A straight line with an arrow showing the direction of a beam of light.
- 12. A wave in which the vibrations are at right angles to the direction the wave is travelling.
- 14. The angle between an incoming light ray and the normal.
- 15. Electromagnetic radiation that has a shorter wavelength than ultraviolet radiation.
- 19. Electromagnetic radiation with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies.
