Across
  1. 1. Surrounds the nucleus of an atom where the electrons are most likely to be at any given time
  2. 6. Periodic variable change in a single period, maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of a equilibrium
  3. 9. lowest and stable energy state of an atom or particle
  4. 10. A state of a physical system such as an atom or molecule that is highest in energy than the ground state
  5. 12. The range of all types of EM radiation
  6. 14. An electromagnetic wave with a wavelength in the range of 0.001 to 0.3m; shorter than that of a normal radio wave but longer than infrared radiation
  7. 15. Distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave
Down
  1. 2. Electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye
  2. 3. The strength and vitality required to do physical/mental activity
  3. 4. is a propagating dynamic disturbance of one or more quantities (can be periodic)
  4. 5. A fundamental universal constant that defines the quantum nature of energy and relates the energy of a photon to its frequency.
  5. 7. The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a unit of time
  6. 8. Minimum amount of any physical entity involved in an interaction. Discrete quantity of energy proportional in magnitude to the frequency of the radiation it represents
  7. 11. A stable subatomic particle with a negative charge ; found in all atoms (primary carrier of electricity in solids)
  8. 13. Particle representing a quantum of light or other electromagnetic radiation. A photon carries energy proportional to the radiation frequency but has zero rest mass.
