Sound and Light
Across
- 2. The perception of the amplitude of a sound wave
- 3. Unit used to measure the frequency of a wave
- 8. The bouncing of light waves off a surface
- 10. The number of vibrations a wave has in a given time
- 11. A disturbance traveling through matter or space, carrying energy from one place to another without transporting matter
- 13. Light can travel through without being scattered
- 15. wave Light is one type of this
Down
- 1. wave The particles of this wave vibrate back & forth along the same direction as the wave
- 4. wave Particles in this wave vibrate at right angles to the direction of the wave.
- 5. This substance will not allow light to pass through it
- 6. Light is so scattered through this that objects cannot be seen clearly
- 7. The distance between any two adjacent wave crests
- 9. Bending of light
- 12. The perception of the frequency of a sound as being high or low
- 14. The distance that any point on the wave is moved from its resting place; it is equal to one-half of the wave height
