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