  1. 2. the force that pulls objects toward each other
  2. 3. the motion of a falling object when the only force acting on it is gravity
  3. 6. the amount of matter in an object
  4. 7. the force of gravity on an object at the surface of a planet
  5. 9. the attractive force between two objects that directly proportional to the mass of an object
  6. 11. forces that produce a nonzero net force, which change an object's motion
  7. 13. a push or pull exerted on an object
  8. 14. an object's in position relative to a reference point
Down
  1. 1. equal forces acting on an object in opposite directions
  2. 4. the force that one surface exerts on another when the two surfaces rub against each other
  3. 5. the overall force of an object when all the individual forces acting on it are added together
  4. 8. the tendency of an object to resist change in its motion
  5. 10. the speed of an object and the direction of its motion
  6. 12. a unit of measure that equals the force required to accelerate 1 kilogram of mass at 1 meters per second
