Waves

2. a wave vibrating in the direction of propagation
4. a kind of radiation including visible light, radio waves, gamma rays, and X-rays,
8. the substance that carries a wave (or disturbance) from one location to another
10. the speed at which a wave travels
11. act of light reflecting back when it hits a medium on a plane
12. interference of two waves of equal frequency and opposite phase
14. number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time

1. occurs when the maxima of two waves add together
3. the bending of light as it passes from one transparent substance to another
5. a wave vibrating at right angles to the direction of its propagation
6. describes how long the wave is
7. the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position.
9. an increase (or decrease) in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move toward (or away from) each other.
13. the range of all types of EM radiation
