Electromagnetic Waves
Across
- 1. A natural event where energy is released as tectonic plates shift, sending waves through earths crust
- 4. This wave requires a medium to travel through
- 7. A wave where the medium's motion is perpendicular to the energy's direction, able to be demonstrated by a wave in a lake
- 10. The electromagnetic wave used for long-distance communication
- 11. The electromagnetic wave used in a common kitchen appliance with the same name
- 14. one of these happens every period
Down
- 2. The measurement that determines how much energy is carried in a wave
- 3. This type of wave has particles that move parallel to the direction the energy in the wave moves, think sound waves
- 5. Invisible radiation associated with heat signatures in thermal imaging
- 6. An electromagnetic wave that is responsible for sterilizing equipment and tanning skin
- 8. The peak of a transverse wave
- 9. The lowest point of a transverse wave
- 12. The electromagnetic wave used in cancer treatment and astrophysics
- 13. Measured in seconds, the amount of time for one complete wavelength to take place
