Physics 10 Mechanics
Across
- 1. is done when a force moves an object in the direction of force. scalar
- 7. fraction of energy which is usefully transferred
- 9. the force of gravity on a body
- 10. collisions the total ke is decreased ; perfectly inelastic if they stick together
- 11. the ability to do work
- 12. energy energy an object has as a result of its motion
- 13. change in momentum. a vector
- 15. the value of a quantity measured at an instant in time, as opposed to an average quantity measured over a period of time
- 18. one newton is the force which will accelerate
- 19. the rate of doing work. watts
- 20. reaction two objects contact each other exert a force on each other which is perpendicular to the surface
- 21. and distance the scalar versions of velocity and displacement
- 22. a force produced in a body. the opposite is compression
Down
- 2. My teacher calls himself
- 3. the distance traveled in a particular direction from a specified origin
- 4. the rate of change of displacement with time. a vector, units m/s
- 5. the rate of change of velocity with time a vector, units m/s/s
- 6. upward force on the wing of an aircraft due to the air flowing around it
- 8. the force which opposes motion when one surface moves over another. it is caused by the roughness of the surfaces
- 14. the property of matter which makes it resist acceleration
- 16. upward force on a body which is immersed in a flud (liquid or gas)
- 17. an unbalanced force causes an acceleration
