Falling objects
Across
- 4. Standard unit for measuring acceleration (6,3,6,3,6)
- 7. Type of drag that affects falling objects (3,10)
- 10. Forces that do not cancel; they cause acceleration
- 11. How fast an object is moving; increases during free fall
- 14. To apply a force
- 15. Motion under gravity with no air resistance (4,4)
- 16. Unchanging; describes acceleration in free fall
- 18. A quantity with both magnitude and direction, like force
- 19. Rate of change of speed; constant during free fall (ignore air)
Down
- 1. A force that acts without touching, like gravity (3,7)
- 2. Standard unit for measuring speed (6,3,6)
- 3. The force of gravity on an object; measured in newtons
- 5. Amount of matter in an object; stays the same everywhere
- 6. A force that acts at a distance within a region like a gravitational field (5,5)
- 8. Forces that cancel out and cause no acceleration
- 9. Maximum speed reached when air resistance balances weight (8,8)
- 12. The overall force acting on an object
- 13. Force that opposes motion through a fluid like air
- 17. Force that pulls objects toward Earth
