Across
  1. 1. amount of energy carried by a wave
  2. 7. waves electric and magnetic waves released by a vibrating electric charge; capable of transferring energy through a vacuum
  3. 10. spectrum entire range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation
  4. 11. a rhythmic disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space
  5. 12. of reflection angle of incidence is always equal to angle of reflection
  6. 14. process where an object is made to vibrate at its natural frequency by absorbing the energy of another object vibrating at the same frequency
  7. 15. human perception of intensity
  8. 18. examples are MRI, WiFi, Radar
  9. 20. examples are vitamin D production, kill bacteria
  10. 22. examples are night vision goggles, remote controls
  11. 23. amount of time it takes one wavelength to pass a point
  12. 24. two or more waves combine to form a new wave
  13. 25. number of waves that pass a given point in one second
Down
  1. 2. type of wave that transfers energy through a vacuum
  2. 3. when a wave strikes an object and goes into it
  3. 4. measure of energy passing through an area in a set amount of time
  4. 5. matter in the medium moves at right angles to the direction of the wave
  5. 6. examples are cooking, Doppler
  6. 8. related to frequency and will increase as frequency increases
  7. 9. matter through which a wave travels
  8. 13. the bending of waves caused by a change in its speed as it moves from one medium through another
  9. 16. when an object causes a wave to change direction and bend around it
  10. 17. matter in the medium travels back and forth in the same direction as the wave
  11. 19. travel fastest in a solid and or warmer mediums
  12. 21. when a wave strikes an object and bounces off it
