Across
  1. 5. Description of materials that allow light to pass through them in straight lines.
  2. 7. The continuous range of electromagnetic waves that extends in frequency from radio waves to gamma rays.
  3. 8. A disturbance that travels from one place to another transporting energy, but not necessarily matter, along with it.
  4. 9. The distance from the top of one crest to the top of the next crest or, equivalently, the distance between successive identical parts of the wave
  5. 10. The returning of a wave to the medium from which it came when it hits a barrier.
Down
  1. 1. Any bending of light by means other than reflection and refraction.
  2. 2. A wave in which the medium vibrates in a direction parallel (longitudinal) to the direction in which the wave travels.
  3. 3. For a wave or a vibration, the maximum displacement on either side of the equilibrium (midpoint) position.
  4. 4. A wave in which the medium vibrates in a direction perpendicular (transverse) to the direction in which the wave travels.
  5. 6. The bending of waves due to a change in wave speed.
