Across
- 4. A wave behavior that is the bending of waves due to a change in speed as the wave moves from one medium to another.
- 7. The range of electromagnetic waves that can be detected by the human eye including colors.
- 11. The entire range of light that are part of electromagnetic waves arranged in order of their frequencies or wavelengths.
- 17. A wave behavior that means to take in so that the wave energy is not transferred through the medium.
- 18. The range of electromagnetic waves in the frequency region just below red on the visible light spectrum; when absorbed objects become warmer.
Down
- 1. A wave behavior that is the bouncing back of waves upon reaching another surface or boundary that does not absorb the wave's energy.
- 2. Different frequencies of light that are part of the visible light spectrum; the color perceived by the observer is the frequency reflected by a material, other frequencies were absorbed by the material.
- 3. A material that transmits some light but causes it to be scattered so no clear image is seen
- 5. Human perception of the frequency of sound.
- 6. A material with many slits or tiny ridges that refracts light at different angles into its various frequencies/ colors.
- 8. A wave behavior that is the process of allowing the wave to pass through a given point or medium.
- 9. The range of electromagnetic waves in the frequency region just above violet on the visible spectrum.
- 10. A material that does not allow light waves to be transmitted through them.
- 12. A lens whose middle part is thicker than its edges so that it bends/refracts light rays together.
- 13. A mirror with a smooth, flat surface that reflects light.
- 14. A material through which light is transmitted/ passes through easily.
- 15. A triangular-shaped piece of glass that refracts/separates light into its various frequencies / colors.
- 16. Less dense region of a compressional wave where the medium is moving apart.
