- 4. – the area of the Earth's surface where seismographs cannot detect an earthquake after the waves have passed through the earth
- 5. – the alpha particle is the same as the nucleus of which element
- 7. - When waves change direction as they pass through a medium due to a change of speed which is due to a change in density of the material

Down
- 1. - the force acting on an object due to gravity
- 2. - the oscillations are parallel to the direction of energy transfer of the wave
- 3. - at high temperatures, its resistance drops
- 6. - The turning effect of a force
- 7. - a single force that can replace all the forces acting on an object to give the same effect as the original forces acting together
- 10. – the first letter of the colours of the spectrum, starting from the colour with the shortest wavelength

- 22. - the collective term for protons and neutrons
- 23. - A component that only lets current flow in one direction
