Across
- 2. Standard unit of frequency
- 3. rate of occurrence: The doctor has increased the frequency of his visits.
- 5. The effect, result, or consequence of being compressed.
- 7. The transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas.
- 10. Insulating material, often glass or porcelain, in a unit form designed so as to support a charged conductor and electrically isolate it.
- 11. The degree of heat in a living body, normally about 98.6°F (37°C) in humans.
- 12. Sound like waves having a frequency below the audible range, that is, below about 16Hz
- 14. a ringing or similar sensation of sound in the ears.
Down
- 1. An instrument for measuring temperature, often a sealed glass tube that contains a column of liquid, as mercury, that expands and contracts, or rises and falls, with temperature changes, the temperature being read where the top of the column coincides with a calibrated scale marked on the tube or its frame.
- 4. a sound heard again near its source after being reflected.
- 6. the act or process of making less dense or the state of being less dense
- 7. The transfer of heat between two parts of a stationary system, caused by a temperature difference between the parts.
- 8. A substance, body, or device that readily conducts heat, electricity, sound, etc.: Copper is a good conductor of electricity.
- 9. a unit used to express the intensity of a sound wave, equal to 20 times the common logarithm of the ratio of the pressure produced by the sound wave to a reference pressure, usually 0.0002 microbar.
- 13. The process in which energy is emitted as particles or waves.
