Sun - Earth - Moon
Across
- 2. Refers to the wave patterns within Earth's waters.
- 7. The wide array within the variances of light arranged by differing wavelengths and frequencies.
- 9. When the tilt is most pointed away from the sun
- 10. The Earth is in the middle and it's shadow is cast upon the moon.
- 13. Causes Earth's seasons.
- 14. Matter that enables a wave to travel through.
- 15. Occurs when the moon's lit portion is increasing.
- 17. Number of hours before the next tide change.
- 20. Occurs when the Sun-Moon-Earth are perpendicular.
- 21. Allows light to pass through and refract.
- 22. Tilt is moving away from the sun.
- 23. Means that it happens twice a day.
- 25. The spinning motion an object makes as it moves around a central object.
- 26. Time where the Earth experiences intense seasons due to Earth's tilt being pointed towards or away from the sun.
- 27. More of this increases gravity.
- 28. Shaped like )( and makes light diffract, expanding the image.
- 29. The moon is in the middle and it's shadow is cast upon Earth.
- 31. Tilt is beginning to get closer to the sun.
- 32. Shaped like () and makes light focus to a specific point.
Down
- 1. Travel fastest through the least dense matter or a vacuum.
- 3. Occurs when the moon's lit portion is decreasing.
- 4. The path an object makes around a more massive one.
- 5. Half of the Earth
- 6. Light wave with the longest wavelength.
- 8. Time where the Earth experiences mild seasons due to the tilt being balanced.
- 11. Moon is at maximum luminosity.
- 12. Days in the lunar cycle.
- 16. Light wave with the highest frequency.
- 17. Travel fastest through dense matter, like a solid.
- 18. Devices used by scientists to enable individuals to see things at different distances and wavelengths they cannot.
- 19. Occurs when the Sun-Moon-Earth are parallel.
- 20. Does light ever travel faster than sound?
- 24. Less of this increases gravity.
- 27. Allows light to reflect off of it.
- 29. When the tilt is most pointed towards the sun
- 30. The object that has the greatest influence on the tides.
