Ch 10 Forces
Across
- 2. the force of attraction between all objects with mass
- 6. the total momentum of a system remains constant unless acted on by external forces
- 8. friction that acts when two surfaces slide past each other
- 9. an object that revolves around another object in space
- 13. the constant speed reached when air resistance equals the force of gravity
- 14. forces that do not cancel each other and cause a change in motion
- 16. the force that keeps an object moving in a circular path
- 18. the friction that prevents surfaces from starting to slide past one another
Down
- 1. a type of fluid friction that opposes the motion of objects moving through air
- 3. motion in which gravity is the only force acting on an object
- 4. a push or pull that acts on an object
- 5. friction that acts when an object rolls over a surface
- 7. a force that opposes the motion between two surfaces that touch
- 10. friction that acts on objects moving through a fluid such as air or water
- 11. forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction, producing zero net force
- 12. the product of an object's mass and velocity
- 15. the overall force acting on an object after all individual forces are combined
- 17. the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion
