Across
- 2. the number of wave cycles in a unit time
- 5. a material that moves energy or light from one substance to another, or from one location to another, or from one surface to another
- 6. refers to the change in wave frequency during the relative motion between a wave source and its observer.
- 7. the range of all types of EM Radiation
- 9. a wave of electric and magnetic fields propagating at the speed of light c through empty space
- 12. occurs when waves come together so that they completely cancel each other out.
- 13. the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time
- 14. the displacement from the equilibrium
- 15. the change of direction of a wave passing from one medium caused by its change in speed to another
Down
- 1. when two waves overlap in such a way that they combine to create a larger wave.
- 3. the spreading out of waves as they pass through an aperture or around objects
- 4. when light bounces off an object, ex: mirror
- 8. wave in which the vibrating element moves in a direction perpendicular to the direction of advance of the wave.
- 10. a wave vibrating in the direction of propagation
- 11. the distance between two peaks in a wave
