Light and Matter
Across
- 1. blocks lights; not able to be seen through
- 5. to cause or allow something, such as light or force, to pass or be conveyed through space or a medium
- 6. the movement of energy from one place to another
- 7. the number of wavelengths that travel past a point in one second
- 11. the height from rest to crest or rest to trough
- 13. semitransparent; allowing some light to pass through
- 14. radiation the flow of energy at the speed of light through empty space or a medium in the form of waves through electric and magnetic fields
- 15. source something that emits light, typically through some kind of reaction occuring within it
- 16. to throw back without absorbing
- 17. to take in or soak up by chemical or physical action
- 18. the distance from one crest to another crest
Down
- 2. spectrum the full range of all wavelengths
- 3. allowing light to pass through
- 4. an optical illusion in which light bends through one or more layers of air, altering the position or orientation
- 8. to cause something, such as light to reflect or travel in multiple, often random, directions
- 9. deflection of waves as they pass from one medium to another
- 10. visible electromagnetic radiation
- 12. a measure of the clarity of water
