Across
  1. 3. is the prefix associated with x10^24
  2. 9. an element with an atomic number of 54 and atomic weight of 131.29
  3. 11. can see through an object but not clearly
  4. 13. a class of elements characterized by physical properties that include shininess, malleability, ductility, and conductivity; these are found on the left-hand side of the zigzag line on the periodic table
  5. 14. a piece of glass or other clear material with curved sides
  6. 17. the difference in electrical potential energy between two places in a circuit; the cause of electron movement
  7. 18. the tendency of an object to resist any change in motion; is dependent upon the object's mass
  8. 20. the SI unit for force; lifting a lemon requires about 1 newton of force
  9. 23. the bending and spreading of waves as they move around a barrier or through an opening
  10. 25. the force that pulls objects toward each other; factors include the objects' masses and distance apart
  11. 26. cannot see through an object at all
Down
  1. 1. to push back or away by a force, as one body acting upon another
  2. 2. a disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
  3. 4. a positively charged particle that is part of an atom's nucleus; the number of protons is known as the atomic number
  4. 5. the highest part of a transverse wave
  5. 6. the ability to do work, to cause a change, or to move an object
  6. 7. the unit of measurement for frequency (Hz)
  7. 8. the basic unit of a chemical element
  8. 10. unit of work or energy it is equal to the work done by a force of one newton acting through one metre
  9. 12. vaporization occurs throughout a liquid
  10. 15. a disturbance that travels through a medium as a longitudinal wave
  11. 16. the energy that an object has due to its motion
  12. 19. a type of regularization or summability method that assigns finite values to divergent sums or products
  13. 21. the term given to the chemical element of teh periodic table which takes atomic number 92 and the symbol 'U'
  14. 22. is a discrete packet of energy or matter
  15. 24. a push or pull exerted on an object; a force is described by its strength and direction; F=MxA
