Waves Investigation 3
Across
- 3. a tool that produces a very narrow, focused beam of coherent light
- 6. the angle of an incoming beam
- 9. a wave of electricity and magnetism that can travel through a medium or empty space
- 14. the curved path of an object around another object
- 16. a line that extends at a right angle (90 °) from a flat surface
- 18. an incoming beam
- 19. a beam reflected off a surface
