Newton's Laws of Motion
Across
- 3. force acting in an opposite direction
- 6. overall force acting on an object
- 10. when individual forces are in the opposite directions but are different in size
- 12. increase in the rate of speed of an object
- 13. states that an object in motion will stay in motion or an object at rest will stay at rest unless an unbalanced force causes it to change
- 15. famous scientist who studied physics
- 16. the number of atoms or molecules in an object
Down
- 1. force acting in one direction
- 2. the force that's a push or pull towards the center of the Earth
- 4. the force that is resisting the motion of an object
- 5. forces when forces on an object are equal in size but opposite in direction
- 7. states that for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction
- 8. an object's speed and direction
- 9. the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the mass of the object and the force applied
- 11. distance/time; rate it takes an object to cover a distance
- 14. an object's resistance to a change in its motion
