Physics CrossWord
Across
- 1. A graphical representation showing all forces acting on an object, often used to simplify complex problems in mechanics.
- 3. A measure of the spread or dispersion of a set of data points, calculated as the average of the squared differences from the mean.
- 6. The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion or rest. It depends on the mass of the object.
- 7. The total length of the path traveled by an object, regardless of its direction.
- 12. The line or path along which something moves, points, or faces, often specified as an angle relative to a reference frame.
- 13. A push or pull acting upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object. It is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction.
- 14. The overall force acting on an object when all individual forces acting upon it are combined. It determines the acceleration of the object.
- 16. The size or quantity of a vector, representing its strength or intensity, but without considering direction.
Down
- 2. The rate of change of velocity of an object, often resulting from forces acting upon it.
- 4. A force that opposes the motion of an object, arising when two surfaces interact. It can be static or kinetic.
- 5. A measure of the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms.
- 8. The rate of change of an object's displacement, described as both a magnitude and direction.
- 9. The force exerted on an object due to gravity, calculated as w = mg , where m is mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
- 10. The motion of an object under the influence of gravity alone, without any resistance from air or other forces.
- 11. The term is a unit of force
- 15. A statistical test used to determine if there is a significant difference between the means of two groups, often employed in hypothesis testing.
