waves
Across
- 5. the distance from one point of the wave to the equivalent point on the next wave
- 6. the maximum displacement that the wave reaches from its equilibrium position
- 10. ray used for medical imaging, can penetrate skin but not bone
- 11. a wave in which the oscillations are parallel to the direction of travel
- 13. third from the end on the electromagnet scale, with relatively low frequency, long wavelength
- 14. the highest point of the wave
Down
- 1. third from the end, closest to gamma rays, used in sun beds
- 2. ray used in the treatment of cancer
- 3. used in satellite communications and cooking food
- 4. the number of waves passing a fixed point per second, measured in hertz
- 7. the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another, typically seen with light
- 8. a wave in which the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of travel
- 9. ray used for television, radio and bluetooth
- 12. the lowest point of the wave
