Across
- 2. the number of repetitions of a periodic process in a unit of 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. Doppler effect in physics is defined as the increase in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move towards each other
- 7. is the full range of electromagnetic radiation, organized by frequency or wavelength.
- 9. a form of energy that propagates as both electrical and magnetic waves traveling in packets of energy called photons.
- 12. Destructive interference 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. distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave.
- 15. change in direction of propagation of any wave as a result of its traveling at different speeds at different points along the wave front.
Down
- 1. Constructive interference happens 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. the throwing back by a body or surface of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it.
- 8. a wave that oscillates perpendicularly to the direction of the wave's advance.
- 10. A longitudinal wave is a type of wave in which the medium's vibration is parallel to the direction of the wave
- 11. the distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.
