Across
- 8. highest point on a transverse wave
- 10. the color of the visible ligh spectrum that had the longest wavelenth
- 11. the height of a wave
- 12. waves that can travel through soft objects; used for imaging
- 14. waves that do not need a medium to transfer energy
- 16. the distance from one point of a wave to the next consecutive point; measured horizontally
- 18. waves used in mobile phones and other communication devices
- 20. waves with the least amount of energy and longest wavelenght
- 21. highest energy of all EM waves; damaging to cells
Down
- 1. the narrow section of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see
- 2. waves that can make some minerals glow; can cause skin damage
- 3. associated with heat; unable to see them
- 4. how fast a wave pass a given point in one second
- 5. waves do not carry this they carry energy instead
- 6. when you see this you are seeing all the colors that makeup light
- 7. waves that electromagnetic waves are considered
- 9. the way electromagnetic waves moves
- 13. electromagnetic waves are able to travel through this but mechanical waves are not
- 15. the lowest point on a transverse wave
- 17. the color of the visible light spectrum that has the shortest wavelength
- 19. the full range of electromagnetic waves
