Across
  1. 2. The energy of temperature. It is also called heat energy.
  2. 4. describes how matter that allows light to pass through with LITTLE interference.
  3. 6. lowest point on a wave
  4. 9. A type of wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. These waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.
  5. 11. The distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave.
  6. 14. energy that a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.
  7. 15. the combination of two or more waves that results in a single wave.
  8. 17. a mechanism that converts rotational motion to linear motion, and a torque to a linear force.
  9. 18. describes matter that transmits light but that does not transmit the image.
  10. 21. the bending of a wave as the wave passes between two substances in which the speed of the wave differs.
  11. 22. describes an object that is NOT transparent or translucent.
  12. 23. The process of energy changing from one form to another.
  13. 25. a measure of how high or low a sound is perceived to be, depending on the frequency of the sound wave.
  14. 26. the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.
  15. 27. the bouncing back of a ray of light, sound or heat when the ray hits a surface that is does not go through.
  16. 29. a simple machine that consists of a wheel attached to a smaller axle so that these two parts rotate together in which a force is transferred from one to the other.
  17. 30. a wheel with a grooved rim around which a cord passes. It acts to change the direction of a force applied to the cord and is chiefly used (typically in combination) to raise heavy weights.
  18. 31. The energy that is stored in bonds. It can be found in matches, batteries, and food.
  19. 34. a physical environment is which phenomena occur
Down
  1. 1. highest point on a wave
  2. 3. a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.
  3. 5. a slope or inclined plane for joining two different levels, as at the entrance or between floors of a building.
  4. 7. a periodic disturbance in a solid, liquid or gas as energy is transmitted through a medium.
  5. 8. a kind of kinetic energy with the ability to make types of light visible to human eyes
  6. 10. a wave that consists of electric and magnetic fields that vibrate at right angles to each other.
  7. 12. The energy of moving objects. This energy involves the sum (total) of potential energy and kinetic energy.
  8. 13. A triangular shaped tool. It can be used to separate two objects or portions of an object, lift up an object, or hold an object in place
  9. 16. The energy that you can hear.
  10. 19. The energy that forms when atoms break apart or join together.
  11. 20. a change in the direction of a wave when the wave finds an obstacle or an edge, such as an opening.
  12. 24. the number of waves produced in a given amount of time
  13. 28. a simple machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge, or fulcrum.
  14. 32. the maximum distance that the particles of a wave's medium vibrate from their rest position (rest to crest)
  15. 33. a phenomenon that occurs when two objects naturally vibrate at the same frequency; the sound produced by one object causes the other object to vibrate
