Force Crossword Puzzles
Across
- 1. The amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms.
- 3. The resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another; it opposes motion.
- 4. Force: A force that is applied to an object by a person or another object.
- 5. A push or pull that can cause an object to accelerate, change direction, or deform.
- 7. A quantity that has both magnitude and direction, often represented as an arrow in diagrams.
- 8. Force: The support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with a stable surface, acting perpendicular to that surface.
- 9. The force transmitted through a string, rope, or wire when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposite ends.
- 11. The overall force acting on an object when all individual forces are combined.
- 13. The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion; it is directly related to the mass of the object.
Down
- 2. The rate at which an object’s velocity changes over time, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).
- 5. Diagram: A graphical representation that shows all the forces acting on a single object, helping to visualize the interactions.
- 6. A force that acts at the point of contact between two objects, including friction, tension, and normal forces.
- 10. The force that attracts two bodies toward each other, commonly experienced as the force that pulls objects toward the Earth.
- 11. A set of three fundamental principles that describe the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it.
- 12. A state where the net force acting on an object is zero, resulting in no acceleration.
