Forces & Motion Unit 1
Across
- 2. quantity that has both magnitude and direction
- 8. region of space that has a physical quantity at every point
- 10. Newton's law that an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless a force acts on it.
- 13. starting point you choose to describe the location or position of an object
- 15. push or pull on an object
- 16. contact force that resists the sliding motion of 2 surfaces that are touching
- 17. speed and direction of a moving object
- 19. difference between the initial starting position and the final position
- 21. object's distance and direction from a reference point
- 22. measure of the distance an object travels in a given amount of time
- 23. Newton's law that when an object applies a force on another object the 2nd object applies a force of the same strength on the 1st object but force is in opposite direction
- 24. measure of the distance an object travels in a given amount of time
Down
- 1. simple model to understand what will happen to an object due to a force
- 3. when colliding objects bounce off each other
- 4. process of changing position
- 5. gravitational force exerted on an object
- 6. combination of all the forces acting on an object
- 7. - forces two objects apply to each other
- 9. forces two object apply to each other
- 11. attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass
- 12. Newton's law of motion that states the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by the objects mass
- 14. push or pull on one object by another object that is touching it
- 18. measure of the change in velocity during a period of time
- 20. force that one object applies to another object without touching it
