Physics
Across
- 2. quantity / A quantity that has magnitude and acts in a particular direction is described as a vector.
- 3. / Is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving." Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance.
- 6. / Is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.
- 7. / Are quantities that are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction.
- 8. / Are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude (or numerical value) alone.
- 10. / Is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity.
- 12. Speed / The average of all instantaneous speeds; found simply by a distance/time ratio.
- 13. / Is the phenomenon in which an object changes its position over time.
Down
- 1. / Is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.
- 4. Speed / The speed at any given instant in time.
- 5. / The study of the motion of objects.
- 7. quantity / A quantity that has magnitude but no particular direction is described as scalar.
- 9. / Is the science of describing the motion of objects using words, diagrams, numbers, graphs, and equations. Kinematics is a branch of mechanics.
- 11. / Is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position."
