Across
- 3. shorter wavelengths have less, higher frequency has more
- 4. The second highest energy EM waves. Short wavelengths, high frequency
- 6. The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave
- 7. Highest point of a wave
- 9. a particle of energy transferred in an EM wave
- 11. reflection of light in all directions
- 12. The number of waves that pass per a certain amount of time.
- 16. EM Waves - damaging higher energy waves, less energy than X-rays.
- 17. the combination of two or more waves that results in a single wave
- 18. The part of the EM spectrum that we can see arranged from low energy longer waves of Red to higher energy shorter waves of Violet. ROY G BIV
- 20. the passing of light through a medium
- 21. When waves bend around an object
- 24. the highest energy and shortest wavelength of visible light
- 25. A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
- 27. Between a Radio and Infrared. Used for cell phones and Radar. Lower energy than visible light
- 28. For a wave or vibration, the maximum displacement on either side of the equilibrium (midpoint) position.
- 29. Material through which a wave travels
Down
- 1. demonstrates that light acts as a wave due to the diffraction and interference
- 2. The interference that occurs when two waves combine to make a wave with a smaller amplitude
- 5. the lowest point of a transverse wave
- 8. The interference that occurs when two waves combine to make a wave with a smaller amplitude
- 10. Highest frequency, shortest wavelength EM waves
- 13. When a wave passes from one medium to another and it changes speed/angles
- 14. When a wave's energy goes into a material.
- 15. No wave energy is absorbed and it is bounced off of a surface
- 19. EM waves used in remotes. Less energy than visible light more than Microwaves. Perceived as "heat".
- 22. the lowest energy and longest wavelength of visible light
- 23. EM waves with the longest wavelengths, lowest frequency, and lowest energy
- 26. The distance from crest to crest of a wave
