Across
  1. 3. It causes the separation of a wave into spectral components with different wavelengths, due to the dependence of the wave speed from the wavelength in the crossed medium.
  2. 6. Lying or extending across or in a cross direction
  3. 8. The repeated or regular way in which something happens or is done.
  4. 10. The line perpendicular to the boundary passing through the point of incidence.
  5. 11. A natural or artificial process that emits a visible electromagnetic radiation.
  6. 12. It is a transparent optical element with flat and polished surfaces and it is mostly used to disperse light.
  7. 16. Range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiations and their respective wavelengths and photon energies.
  8. 18. It refers to the maximum displacement of a particle of a medium from its rest position when a wave passes through it.
  9. 20. A smooth surface on which regular reflection takes place.
  10. 21. Reflection of waves or particles from a surface such that the incident rays on the surface are scattered at many angles rather than at just one angle.
Down
  1. 1. The electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
  2. 2. It states that every point on a wavefront is itself the source of spherical wavelets.
  3. 4. The ratio between the velocity of light in an empty space and the velocity in a substance.
  4. 5. The distance between two similar points on a wave of energy, such as light or sound.
  5. 7. The combination of two or more waves trains moving on intersecting or coincident paths.
  6. 9. It is when light waves move all the way through a material without being absorbed (this happens with transparent materials).
  7. 13. The number of complete vibrational cycles of a medium per a given amount of time.
  8. 14. The change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another, caused by its change in speed.
  9. 15. The magnitude, thus a scalar quantity, of the rate of change of an object's position.
  10. 17. The change of direction of a ray or a wave after bumping into a barrier or a surface.
  11. 19. The time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle, or in other words, one complete oscillation.
