- 2. The energy of temperature. It is also called heat energy.
- 4. describes how matter that allows light to pass through with LITTLE interference.
- 6. lowest point on a wave
- 9. A type of wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. These waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.
- 11. The distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave.
- 14. energy that a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.
- 15. the combination of two or more waves that results in a single wave.
- 17. a mechanism that converts rotational motion to linear motion, and a torque to a linear force.
- 18. describes matter that transmits light but that does not transmit the image.
- 21. the bending of a wave as the wave passes between two substances in which the speed of the wave differs.
- 22. describes an object that is NOT transparent or translucent.
- 23. The process of energy changing from one form to another.
- 25. a measure of how high or low a sound is perceived to be, depending on the frequency of the sound wave.
- 26. the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.
- 27. the bouncing back of a ray of light, sound or heat when the ray hits a surface that is does not go through.
- 29. a simple machine that consists of a wheel attached to a smaller axle so that these two parts rotate together in which a force is transferred from one to the other.
- 30. a wheel with a grooved rim around which a cord passes. It acts to change the direction of a force applied to the cord and is chiefly used (typically in combination) to raise heavy weights.
- 31. The energy that is stored in bonds. It can be found in matches, batteries, and food.
- 34. a physical environment is which phenomena occur
Down
- 1. highest point on a wave
- 3. a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.
- 5. a slope or inclined plane for joining two different levels, as at the entrance or between floors of a building.
- 7. a periodic disturbance in a solid, liquid or gas as energy is transmitted through a medium.
- 8. a kind of kinetic energy with the ability to make types of light visible to human eyes
- 10. a wave that consists of electric and magnetic fields that vibrate at right angles to each other.
- 12. The energy of moving objects. This energy involves the sum (total) of potential energy and kinetic energy.
- 13. A triangular shaped tool. It can be used to separate two objects or portions of an object, lift up an object, or hold an object in place
- 16. The energy that you can hear.
- 19. The energy that forms when atoms break apart or join together.
- 20. a change in the direction of a wave when the wave finds an obstacle or an edge, such as an opening.
- 24. the number of waves produced in a given amount of time
- 28. a simple machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge, or fulcrum.
- 32. the maximum distance that the particles of a wave's medium vibrate from their rest position (rest to crest)
- 33. a phenomenon that occurs when two objects naturally vibrate at the same frequency; the sound produced by one object causes the other object to vibrate
