Chapter 12 vocab
Across
- 1. The attraction between any two objects because of their masses.
- 4. the force of gravity acting on an object
- 10. When the forces on an object are balanced, the net force is zero
- 11. a friction force that opposes the motion of an object over a surface
- 14. a push or pull that acts on an object
- 15. a friction force that acts on objects that are not moving
- 18. Law stating that the total momentum of a system does not change if no net force acts on the system
- 19. law For every action there is an equal or opposite reaction
- 20. a friction force that opposes of an object though a fluid
- 21. the SI unit for force
Down
- 2. Fluid friction acting on an object moving through the air
- 3. a friction force that acts on rolling objects, caused by the change in shape at the point of rolling contact
- 5. When an unbalanced force acts on an object, the object accelerates.
- 6. the constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.
- 7. The curved path of an object in free fall after it is givin an inward forward velocity The speed and direction an object is moving
- 8. law The acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it devided by the objects mass.
- 9. the amount of matter in an object.
- 12. The tendacy of an object to resist a change in its motion
- 13. law The state of an object does not change as long as the net force acting on the object is zero
- 16. The product of an objects mass and its velocity
- 17. the overall force acting on an object after all of the forces are combined
