Across
- 3. a material that allows most of the light that strikes it to pass through, but through which objects appear blurry.
- 7. mirror a mirror that curves outward.
- 8. a lens that is thicker in the middle than at the edges.
- 11. energy energy carried by an electromagnetic wave.
- 12. image an image of an object that your brain perceives to be in a place where the object is not.
- 14. a material through which light does not pass.
- 15. reflection of light from a smooth, shiny surface.
- 16. a lens that is thicker at the edges than in the middle.
Down
- 1. the change in direction of a wave as it changes speed in moving from one medium to another.
- 2. point the point where light rays parallel to the optical axis converge after being reflected by a mirror or refracted by a lens.
- 4. of reflection law that states that when a wave is reflected from a surface, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
- 5. a material that allows almost all of the light striking it to pass through, and through which objects can be seen clearly.
- 6. a transparent object with at least one curved side that causes light to change direction.
- 9. reflection of light from a rough surface
- 10. electromagnetic radiation that you can see.
- 11. image an image that forms where rays converge.
- 13. mirror a mirror that curves inward.
