Across
- 2. unit of frequency, its abbreviation is Hz. Its equal to one vibration every second.
- 4. wide stream of light rays, all moving the same direction.
- 5. high energy electromagnetci radiation produced during nuclear reactions. They have no mass and travel at the speed of light.
- 7. allowing light to come through imperfectly
- 9. material through which a wave moves.
- 10. maximum distance that a particle moves away from its undisturbed position.
- 12. a lense curved outwards.
- 13. change in the speed of light as it passes from one substance into another. It usually involes a change in direction.
- 14. describes a substance that does not allow any light to pass through it
Down
- 1. high energy electromagnetic waves that can be transmitted through solids and provide information about their structure
- 3. allows most light to pass through it, objects can seen clearly through transparent sunstances.
- 6. invisible radiation emmitted by all warm objects.
- 8. region in which the particles are closer together than when not disturbed by wave.
- 11. transmitter of energy without the movement of particles from place to place. The vibration of particles or energy fields is involed.
- 12. a lense curved inwards.
- 13. narrow beams of light.
