Across
- 3. the number of wave crests that pass a fixed point per second.
- 4. energy travels in waves and spans a broad spectrum from very long radio waves to very short waves.
- 10. velocity/frequency
- 11. the substance that transfers the energy, or light from one substance to another substance.
- 12. if the crests of one wave coincide with the troughs of the other wave, the amplitude would be decreased.
- 13. distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave.
- 14. vibration that takes place in the same direction as the advance of the wave.
- 15. a motion in which all points on a wave oscillate along paths to the direction of the wave.
Down
- 1. the distance the wave travels in a given amount of time.
- 2. visible light,radio waves,gamma rays,and X-rays.
- 5. the spreading of waves as they pass through or around an obstacle.
- 6. an increase in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move forward from each other.
- 7. the bending of a light as it passes from a transparent object to another.
- 8. when light bounces off an object
- 9. two waves travel in the same direction and are in phase with each other.
