  1. 6. for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
  2. 9. a net force acting on an object that is not equal and opposite, causing the object to accelerate and change its state of motion
  3. 11. the rate of change of an object's velocity over time
  4. 12. a measure of the amount of matter in an object
  5. 14. a push or a pull on an object that results from an interaction between objects
  6. 15. the energy of motion
Down
  1. 1. An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force
  2. 2. the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass
  3. 3. a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact with each other
  4. 4. the stored energy in an object due to its position, state, or configuration
  5. 5. the resistance of any physical object to any change in its state of motion
  6. 7. an organized group of related or interdependent parts that work together to perform a function
  7. 8. when two or more forces acting on an object are equal in strength and opposite in direction, resulting in a net force of zero
  8. 10. the overall force acting on an object, calculated as the vector sum of all individual forces
  9. 13. the scalar quantity that measures how fast an object is moving
