Light
Across
- 1. It is a pattern or form that moves
- 4. matter repels light in another direction
- 8. showed that light was a form of high frequency electromagnetic wave
- 10. Sunlight is scattered off the molecules of the atmosphere
- 12. Energy (information) that is transferred from place to place in the form of a wave
- 14. the region in EM spectrum where we can see
- 16. matter releases energy as light
- 18. the particles in the medium move along the direction of the wave; travel in solids, liquids, and gases
- 19. it pertains to how often a vibration (cycle, repetition)occurs in some interval of time
Down
- 2. light travels here at 300,000 km/s
- 3. matter allows light to pass through it
- 5. distance of the wave from crest to crest or trough to trough
- 6. developed a model that explained light as a quantization of energy.
- 7. matter takes energy from light
- 9. radiation with the most energy
- 11. Examples include : stretched strings of musical instruments, waves on the surfaces of liquids, some of the waves produced in earthquakes.
- 13. packets of light
- 15. height of wave above “rest position”
- 17. a vibration in an electromagnetic field through which energy is transported
- 20. the color with the least frequency
