Across
- 5. Spectrum: the range of wavelengths or frequencies over which electromagnetic radiation extends
- 7. the distance from one crest to the next crest
- 8. the wave travels in the same direction as the matter. Ex. slinky pushed forward in one direction.
- 10. the height of a wave
- 12. when waves bend
- 13. the number of waves in a given time period
- 14. the lowest part of a wave
Down
- 1. an interruption in stillness
- 2. height: the vertical distance from the top of the crest to the bottom trough
- 3. Waves: waves that only travel through matter: must use a MEDIUM to travel. There are two types of waves:
- 4. when waves bounce back
- 6. waves travel side to side as the matter travels up and down.. Ex. slinky moving up and down
- 9. a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or through space
- 11. the highest part of a wave
