Forces
Across
- 3. A push or pull
- 5. the fluid friction experienced by objects falling through the air
- 6. opposes the motion of an object through a fluid
- 7. the constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force of gravity
- 10. A force of attraction between objects that is due to their masses
- 11. the powerful attractive force that binds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus
- 13. a unit of force equal to the force that imparts an acceleration of 1 m/sec/sec to a mass of 1 kilogram
- 14. the force that opposes the motion of one surface as it moves across another surface
- 16. the attractive or repulsive force between electric charges and magnets
- 17. the combination of all forces acting on an object
- 18. friction that occurs when one solid surface slides over another
- 19. friction that acts on objects that are not moving
Down
- 1. Force = mass x acceleration
- 2. the scientific law that states that every object in the universe attracts every other object by mass and distance
- 4. the scientific law that states that an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion with a constant speed and direction unless acted on by a force
- 8. "If one object exerts a force on another object, then the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the opposite direction on the first object."
- 9. the curved path that an object follows when thrown, launched, or otherwise projected near the surface of Earth
- 12. a powerful attractive force that acts over a short range, responsible for radioactive decay
- 15. friction that occurs when an object rolls over a surface
