Waves
Across
- 4. Shorter wavelength and higher frequency than x-rays
- 5. Can see them
- 7. The SI unit
- 10. The distances between two crests/troughs or between two sections of compressions/rarefactions
- 13. The lowest points of a transverse wave
- 14. What a wave does as long as it has energy to "carry"
- 16. The electromagnetic "thing" that provides us with a visual representation of waves with colors, frequency/wavelength, and waves
- 19. Invisible electromagnetic waves with low energy waves after radio waves
- 21. Waves with the lowest energy, frequency but the longest wavelength
- 22. Can be a gas, liquid, or solid
- 23. The starting position of the wave is on, or the straight line
Down
- 1. The more spread-out area of longitudinal waves
- 2. The greatest distance the particles are displaced from the resting position
- 3. No matter how big transverse waves are or what medium they travel through, they all have this in common
- 6. Waves where the matter in the medium moves back and forth or parallel to the wave
- 8. Waves that carry energy and travel through the vacuum of space without a medium
- 9. The highest points of a transverse wave
- 11. Anything that moves up and down or back and forth in a rhythmic way, & produces waves
- 12. Has higher energy than light waves
- 13. Waves where the matter in the medium moves up and down or perpendicular to the wave
- 15. Waves that travel only through matter with a medium
- 17. The crowded area of longitudinal waves
- 18. Used in medicine & have higher energy than uv waves
- 20. The number of full wavelengths that pass a point in a given time interval
