Wave properties
Across
- 3. the transfer of energy in a motion that is perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling
- 4. the number of waves that pass a fixed point in unit time
- 7. waves where the disturbance moves in the same direction as the wave.
- 10. a continuum of all electromagnetic waves the distribution of electromagnetic⬛radiation according to frequency or wavelength
- 12. a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another
- 13. the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a wave measured from its equilibrium position.
- 14. When two waves are in phase, they form a new wave with an amplitude equal to the sum of their individual amplitudes
- 15. the changes in frequency of any kind of sound or light wave
Down
- 1. when displacements of the waves that meet are in the opposite directions
- 2. the distance traveled by a given point on the wave in a given interval of time
- 5. radiation including visible light, radio waves, gamma rays, and X-rays, which electric and magnetic fields travels in waves.
- 6. the distance between identical points in the adjacent cycles of a waveform
- 8. a substance or material that can carry a wave
- 9. the spreading of waves around obstacles
- 11. a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier.
