MECHANICAL AND EM WAVES
Across
- 2. The smallest discrete packet of energy associated with electromagnetic radiation
- 3. the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are far apart
- 5. the distance between the equilibrium point and the crest of a wave
- 7. In the region of visible light this color has the shortest wavelength
- 12. we can see the object because of this property of visible light
- 15. The part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together
- 16. This type of radiation is used in cancer therapies
- 18. Distance from crest to crest
- 21. The change in frequency of a wave as the source moves in relation to an observer
- 22. Einstein was awarded with the Nobel Prize due to the discovery of this EM phenomenum
- 24. the process whereby skin color is darkened or tanned due to the exposure to ultraviolet light
- 25. This type of ultraviolet light is considered as ionizing radiation
- 26. Bluetooth and WIFI communications fall into this range on the EM spectrum
Down
- 1. Type of radiation that carries sufficient energy to detach electrons from the atoms.
- 4. EM waves with the wavelengths shorter than visible light but longer than x-rays
- 6. This type of radiation is used by remote controls
- 8. The lowest part of a transverse wave
- 9. A wave that moves the medium in a perpendicular direction in which the wave travels
- 10. EM waves perceived by the human eye
- 11. invisible radiation emmited by all warm objects
- 13. The range of all the radiation that exist
- 14. Technic to produce images that show regions of different temperature in different colors
- 17. The highest part of a transverse wave
- 19. A wave that requieres a medium through which to travel
- 20. the number of complete waves that pass at a given point in a period of time
- 23. This type of radiation is used for very long distance communication
- 27. Electromagnetic waves with the lowest frequencies
