Newton's Laws of Motion
Across
- 3. The forces two objects apply to each other
- 4. The law of __________ of momentum states that the total momentum of a group of objects stays the same unless outside forces act on the objects
- 8. A push or pull on an object
- 11. An attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass
- 12. Forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force that is not zero
- 13. The combination of all forces acting on an object
- 15. Newton's law that states that if the net force acting on an object is zero, the motion of the object does not change
- 16. A contact force that resists the sliding motion of of two surfaces that are touching
- 17. Newton's law that states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
- 18. A measure of how hard it is to stop a moving object
Down
- 1. Forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force of zero
- 2. Newton's law that states that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by the object's mass
- 5. A push or pull on one object by another that is touching it
- 6. A force that one object applies to another object without touching it
- 7. The gravitational force exerted on an object
- 9. Any motion in which an object is moving along a curved path
- 10. In circular motion, a force that acts perpendicular to the direction of motion, toward the center of the curve
- 14. The tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion
- 19. The amount of matter in an object
