Across
  1. 3. The transfer of heat energy by vibrations from one atom to another
  2. 4. Focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction
  3. 6. The transfer of heat by electromagnetic radiation
  4. 7. Light rays coming together to meet at a common point
  5. 9. Energy when an atom is split
  6. 11. Transferring signals from the retina at the back of the eye to the brain
  7. 14. When heated molecules gain more energy & move faster. This leads to more collisions and the particles moving further apart
  8. 17. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
  9. 18. A mirror that is curved inwards
  10. 19. Is the total energy
  11. 22. The light ray that strikes a reflective surface
  12. 23. Stored energy
  13. 25. The gap in the iris through which light centres the eye
  14. 27. The angle at which incoming light rays approaches a surface.
  15. 28. Energy stored in food and in a battery
  16. 31. To control the amount of light entering the pupil
  17. 33. The units for energy
  18. 35. A line perpendicular to the surface.
  19. 36. When cooled molecules lose energy & slow down. This leads to less collisions and the particles move closer together.
Down
  1. 1. Energy cannot be created or destroyed only transformed
  2. 2. Materials that conduct heat well
  3. 5. Energy of an object being held above the ground
  4. 8. The angle between the reflected ray and the normal
  5. 10. A scale of temperature
  6. 12. A mirror that is curved outwards
  7. 13. Energy is a stretched or compressed spring
  8. 15. The bending of light as it passes from one transparent object to another
  9. 16. Is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles
  10. 20. Outgoing ray
  11. 21. Energy of a vibrating speaker
  12. 24. The energy of a moving object
  13. 26. Light rays that are spreading out
  14. 29. The substance a light wave travels through
  15. 30. Energy is transferred by mass motion
  16. 32. The back of the eye with light sensitive cells
  17. 34. The transparent front part of the eye
