Across
- 6. light consists of corpuscles or tiny particles shooting out like tiny bullets from a source
- 9. discovered that light is made up of seven colors

Down
- 1. phenomenon where electrons are emitted when light strikes a photosensitive metal surface
- 2. proposed that every particle of matter is somehow endowed with a wave to guide as it travels
- 3. supported and confirmed the EM wave theory of light
- 4. had a study of the scattering of X - rays by electrons
- 5. proposed the wave theory
- 7. this assumes that light is radiated in discrete packets or bundles called photons
- 8. performed double slit experiment which showed interference of light
- 10. according to this theory light is a series of disturbances
