EMS and Properties of Waves
Across
- 3. Only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that human eyes can detect
- 7. The main natural source of all electromagnetic waves that reach Earth
- 10. The substance through which some waves travel (like air or water)
- 11. A form of electromagnetic radiation that lets us see
- 13. Distance between two corresponding points on a wave (such as crest to crest)
- 14. Type of radiation you can feel as heat but can't see
- 16. The unit used to measure frequency
- 18. Visible light colour with the longest wavelength
- 20. Type of wave used for cooking food and Wi-Fi signals
Down
- 1. The highest point of a wave
- 2. A tool that lets you split white light into its different colours
- 3. Where electromagnetic waves can travel even with no matter present
- 4. The complete range of electromagnetic waves arranged by wavelength or frequency
- 5. The lowest point of a wave
- 6. Shortest wavelength and highest energy radiation
- 8. Height of a wave from its rest position; shows the energy of the wave
- 9. Radiation that causes sunburns and helps make vitamin D
- 12. What all waves transfer from one place to another
- 15. Layer in Earths atmosphere that absorbs most ultraviolet radiation
- 17. Number of waves that pass a point in one second
- 18. Longest wavelength on the electromagnetic spectrum
- 19. Used in hospitals to see bones inside the body
