Across
- 1. The process by which a wave is absorbed by a material and converted to energy
- 5. The region in a longitudal where particals are closest together
- 8. A type of wave where the disturbance moves parelle to the direction of the wave
- 11. The lowest point of a wave
- 12. The region in a longitudinal wave where particals are spread apart
- 14. The range of all types of electromagnetic radition, including visible light
- 15. A disturbance that transfers energy through space or matter
- 17. The distance between successive crest or troughs in a wave
Down
- 2. The bouncing back of a wave when it hits a surface
- 3. The bending of a wave as it passes from one medium to another
- 4. The highest point of a wave
- 6. A type of wave where the disturbance moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave
- 7. The portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye
- 9. A type of electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye
- 10. The height of a wave from its rest position, related to the energy of the wave
- 13. The number of waves that pass a point in one second
- 16. A transparent object that refracts light to converge or diverge beams
