Physics - Force and Motion
Across
- 6. When there is more force in one direction than in the opposite direction. This causes a change in movement (objects start moving, change speed, change direction, or stop moving). (2 words)
- 10. Law of Motion that states "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction"
- 11. The sum of all the forces acting on an object (2 words)
- 13. A force that resists motion and applies an unbalanced force that slows or stops the motion of an object.
- 15. Law of Motion that says "Force = mass x acceleration; F=ma"
- 16. The force of gravity on an object.
Down
- 1. Equal amounts of force in opposite directions. Does NOT cause a change in movement (resting objects stay resting and moving objects stay moving). (2 words)
- 2. Unit of Mass [kg]
- 3. An attractive force that acts on every object in the universe.
- 4. The amount of matter in an object
- 5. The rate at which an object changes speed or direction
- 7. The distance an object travels, divided by the time it takes to travel that distance.
- 8. Law of Motion that states "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion until acted on by an unbalanced force."
- 9. Unit of Force [N]
- 12. A PUSH or PULL that causes an object to change its motion or shape
- 14. When an object is not moving
