Across
  1. 3. the phenomenon that occurs when two or more waves overlap and their combined effect is not simply the sum of their individual amplitudes
  2. 4. material substance through which a wave or energy can propagate
  3. 6. phenomenon where a system vibrates with greater amplitude when subjected to a force or disturbance at its natural frequency
  4. 8. branch of physics that studies the properties and behavior of radio waves, a form of electromagnetic radiation
  5. 9. form of electromagnetic radiation with high energy and short wavelengths, typically shorter than ultraviolet rays but longer than gamma rays
  6. 11. type of electromagnetic radiation with frequencies typically ranging from 1 gigahertz (GHz) to 1 terahertz (THz) and wavelengths between 1 millimeter (mm) and 1 meter (m
  7. 12. the bending of light, sound, or other waves as they pass from one medium to another, or through layers of varying density in the same medium
  8. 13. the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.
  9. 15. the process where energy, usually in the form of electromagnetic radiation or waves, is transferred from a source to a medium, causing the medium to take up that energy and convert it into another form, often internal energy like heat
  10. 16. the highest point or peak of a wave
  11. 17. the distance between identical points, or adjacent crests, in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space or along a wire
  12. 22. the lowest point or minimum displacement of a wave
  13. 23. the act of squeezing or reducing the volume of an object by applying inward forces
  14. 24. the number of times a repeating event, like a wave or vibration, occurs within a specific time period
Down
  1. 1. the movement or passage of a wave, such as light or sound, through a medium
  2. 2. The branch of physics that deals with the action of forces on matter
  3. 5. form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than visible light but longer than X-rays
  4. 7. state where opposing forces or influences are balanced, resulting in no net change in the system's state
  5. 10. reduction in density or a region where particles in a medium are spread apart, often associated with the low-pressure area of a longitudinal wave
  6. 14. the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than microwaves
  7. 18. the physical interaction among electric charges, magnetic moments, and electromagnetic fields
  8. 19. form of electromagnetic radiation with the highest energy and shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.
  9. 20. light the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye can detect, typically ranging from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers
  10. 21. the phenomenon where a wave bounces back when it encounters a barrier or boundary between two different media
