Waves and Vibrations
Across
- 3. electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength
- 5. has the longest wavelength on the em spectrum
- 6. change in direction of a wave front at two different media
- 7. thermal wavelengths, part of em spectrum
- 11. property of certain electromagnetic radiations in which the direction and magnitude of the vibrating electric field are related in a specified way
- 12. can be constructive or destructive
- 14. when one object vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces that second object into vibrational motion
- 16. portion of the em spectrum that we can see
- 18. a wave that travels through a medium
Down
- 1. shortest wavelengths and higher frequency
- 2. used to sterilize food products, part of em spectrum
- 4. the bending of waves
- 8. an electromagnetic wave of high energy and very short wavelength
- 9. the distance light can travel in a unit of time
- 10. characterized by wavelength
- 13. a change in the direction of waves as they pass through one medium to another
- 15. longer wavelengths and lower frequency
- 17. direction of a wave at the medium
