Chapter 12 Review Worksheet - Forces and Motion
Across
- 3. is a type of friction force that acts on objects that are not moving
- 4. is a type of friction force that opposes the motion of an object through a fluid
- 6. this is a measure of inertia of an object and depends on the amount of matter the object contains
- 13. this is an Italian scientist that experimented with rolling balls down a wooden ramp and studied how gravity produces constant acceleration
- 14. this is the type of force gravity is
- 16. this is a scientist that published a book that introduced laws of motion
- 17. this is a Greek scientists and philosopher that made many scientific discoveries but was not always correct
- 20. these are forces that combine to produce a net force of zero
- 21. is a force that opposes the motion of objects that touch as they move past each other
- 22. is a type of nuclear force that is a powerful force of attraction that acts only on the neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom
- 23. this is what force is measured in
Down
- 1. this is the force of gravity acting on an object
- 2. is a universal force that is associated with charged particles
- 5. these are forces that result in the net forces acting on an object does not equal zero
- 7. is a type of friction force that opposes the direction of motion of an object as it slides over a surface
- 8. this is the tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion
- 9. is a force that acts between any two masses
- 10. is a push or a pull that acts on an object
- 11. which law of motion states the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force on it divided by the object's mass
- 12. which law of motion states whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object
- 15. is the product of an object's mass and its velocity
- 16. is the overall force acting on an object after all the forces are combined
- 18. is a type of friction force that acts on rolling objects
- 19. which law of motion states that an object does not change as long as the net force acting on the object is zero
- 24. is a type of nuclear force that is an attractive force that acts only over a short range
