Across
- 2. the distance the wave travels in a given amount of time
- 5. a form of energy that propagates as both electrical and magnetic waves traveling in packets of energy called photons
- 6. Parallel to direction of wave
- 8. the length of one cycle of the wave
- 10. the spreading out of waves as they pass through an aperture or around objects
- 12. happens when two waves overlap in such a way that they combine to create a larger wave.
- 14. the substance that transfers the energy or light from one substance to another substance
- 15. the increase or decrease in the frequency of all waves as the source and observer move towards or away from each other
Down
- 1. happens when two waves overlap in such a way that they cancel each other out.
- 3. distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave
- 4. perpendicular to direction of wave
- 7. the change in the direction of a wave passing from one medium to another
- 9. The complete range of all types of radiation that has both electric and magnetic fields and travels in waves.
- 11. the number of waves that pass a fixed point in time
- 13. the return of light or sound waves from a surface
