Forces choice board
Across
- 3. a unit of force that will accelerate one kilogram of mass one meter per second squared
- 6. a set of forces acting on an object that do not cancel each other out, resulting in a non-zero net force
- 10. How fast an object is speeding up
- 13. the force that prevents two stationary surfaces in contact from sliding relative to each other
- 14. the universal force of attraction between any two objects with mass or energy
- 15. How heavy an object is
Down
- 1. two or more forces acting on an object that are equal in magnitude (strength) and opposite in direction, resulting in a net force of zero
- 2. a resistive force that opposes the motion of a body rolling across a surface, such as a ball or wheel
- 4. tendency of an object to resist any change in its state of motion, whether it's at rest or moving at a constant velocity
- 5. "amount of stuff" in an object
- 7. the resistive force exerted by a fluid (like a liquid or gas) on an object moving through it or between layers of the fluid itself
- 8. the force that opposes the relative motion between two surfaces sliding against each other
- 9. an interaction that, when unopposed, causes a change in an object's motion by changing its speed, direction, or both
- 11. a vector quantity that measures the "quantity of motion" an object possesses, calculated as the product of its mass and velocity
- 12. the total force acting on an object, calculated as the vector sum of all individual forces
