Contact Forces (2) WP
Across
- 3. upward-acting force
- 6. the idea that an object will continue its current motion until some force causes its speed or direction to change
- 7. the force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth
- 10. the sum of all the forces acting on an object
- 13. the things an object needs to have or do to meet the main goal or purpose of the device
- 15. people, groups, or things that are impacted by design decisions
- 17. a diagram that shows the forces acting on a single object in a system
- 19. when two objects collide
- 20. energy in a system that is the result of a change in the position of objects
- 22. interconnected cells that make up the brain and send signals, the long part of the neuron is called an axon
- 23. a collision in which there is not net loss in kinetic energy in the system
- 24. kinetic energy, potential energy, chemical energy, wind energy
Down
- 1. forces applied to an object in opposite directions that are not equal in size
- 2. when energy is relocated from one system to another
- 4. a type of brain injury, caused by a bump or blow hit that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth
- 5. a collision in which there is a loss of kinetic energy
- 8. all other considerations and limits from people and the environment
- 9. a reaction force when a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction, the accelerated mass will cause an equal force but in the opposite direction to be applied to that system
- 11. change in speed or change in direction-or both
- 12. the contact forces between a moving object and the air particles it collides with
- 14. forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction
- 16. the contact forces between a moving object and something it is sliding against
- 18. the maximum extent of size and the direction of an object
- 21. when criteria or constraints have to be weighed against each other to make an informed decision
