Across
- 2. The production and emission of light by a living organism.
- 7. Starts with white, the color with no waves being subtracted, and ends in black, with all waves being subtracted.
- 8. A piece of glass or other transparent substance with curved sides for concentrating or dispersing light rays, used singly (as in a magnifying glass) or with other lenses (as in a telescope).
- 10. The Ability to make things move or produce a change in materials.
- 11. A band of colors, as seen in a rainbow, produced by separation of the components of light by their different degrees of refraction according to wavelength.
- 12. How colors are made by mixing the primary colors red, green, and blue and how those mixed colors are perceived.
- 13. Having an outline or surface that curves inward like the interior of a circle or sphere.
- 14. Light emitted as the result of a chemical reaction.
Down
- 1. The fact or phenomenon of light, radio waves, etc. being deflected in passing obliquely through the interface between one medium and another or through a medium of varying density.
- 3. Emitting light as a result of being heated.
- 4. The reflection of light-rays off smooth conducting surfaces, such as polished metal or metal-coated glass mirrors
- 5. Light emitted by a substance without combustion or perceptible heat.
- 6. The distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.
- 9. A specific type of gas-charged luminaire that produce light through a chemical reaction that involves gases and mercury vapor interacting to produce UV light.
- 15. Having an outline or surface curved like the exterior of a circle or sphere.
