  1. 3. Is a "center-seeking" force that makes an object move in a circular path.
  2. 4. Is when two or more forces acting on an object are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in a net force of zero.
  3. 5. Is a measure of an object's inertia, which is its resistance to a change in motion.
  4. 9. Is a vector quantity that describes the rate of change of an object's position and includes both its speed and direction.
  5. 11. Is a measure of an object's motion, calculated as the product of its mass and velocity.
  6. 12. States that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
  7. 14. Is the motion of an object where the only force acting on it is gravity.
  8. 15. Is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.

  1. 1. Is a vector quantity that describes the rate of change of an object's position and includes both its speed and direction.
  2. 2. States that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, meaning that forces always occur in pairs.
  3. 6. Is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.
  4. 7. Is a force exerted by air that opposes the motion of an object moving through it.
  5. 8. When the net force on an object is not zero, meaning the forces acting on it are not equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
  6. 10. Also known as the law of inertia, states that an object will remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced external force.
  7. 13. Is an interaction that causes an object to change its motion, velocity, or shape.
  8. 16. Is the universal force of attraction that exists between any two objects with mass.
