Across
- 2. Radiation that consists of waves of electric and magnetic energy moving together through space.
- 7. The phenomenon where two waves combine to produce a wave with a smaller amplitude or even cancel each other out.
- 10. The bouncing back of a wave when it hits a barrier.
- 12. The maximum displacement of a point on a wave from its equilibrium position.
- 13. The range of all types of electromagnetic radiation, from radio waves to gamma rays.
- 15. The bending of a wave as it passes from one medium to another.
Down
- 1. A wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
- 3. The bending of waves around obstacles and the spreading of waves as they pass through an aperture.
- 4. The speed at which a wave travels through a medium.
- 5. The change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to an observer.
- 6. The distance between two consecutive points in a wave that are in phase.
- 8. The substance or material through which a wave travels.
- 9. A wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction of the wave. 4.
- 11. The phenomenon where two waves combine to produce a wave with a larger amplitude.
- 14. The number of cycles of a wave that occur in a unit of time.
