Light & Lasers
Across
- 5. a quantum of electromagnetic radiation, the smallest unit of light
- 8. Casting back a light or heat, mirroring, giving back or showing an image
- 9. electromagnetic radiation with longer wavelength of those than visible light
- 12. two exterior angles on opposite sides of a transversal which lie on different parallel lines
- 13. a device that produces a nearly parallel and coherent beam of light by exciting atoms to a higher energy level and causing them to radiate their energy in phase
- 14. a lens having at least one surface that curves outward
- 15. the number of cycles or completed alteration per unit time of a wave or oscillation
Down
- 1. the range of wavelengths or frequencies over witch electromagnetic radiation extends
- 2. the change of direction of light, sound, or heat
- 3. a lens having at least one surface that curves inward
- 4. a line that intersects a system of lines
- 6. electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than those of visible light
- 7. increase the apparent size of, the act of magnifying
- 10. the distance between two successive points in a wave
- 11. the angles that occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight-line crosses two others
