Physics Unit 5 = Forces
Across
- 3. The ratio of the frictional force to the normal force (three words).
- 8. This physical quantity is a force, not a mass.
- 9. Friction associated with resting (you need to overcome this to start moving).
- 10. The Greek letter used to represent the coefficient of friction.
- 11. The ________ force is a term used to describe the final force, the difference between opposing forces.
- 13. It's the unit of mass in the English/Imperial/Customary system.
- 14. It's the unit of force in the English system.
- 15. It's the unit of mass in the metric system.
- 17. This force is the component of weight (the gravity force) that makes an object want to roll down an incline.
Down
- 1. Friction associated with motion.
- 2. When there's no acceleration in a problem (aka constant speed) you set a = _________.
- 4. You draw this before solving the problem; it illustrates the forces involved in the situation (three words).
- 5. It's the unit of force in the metric system.
- 6. This force is opposite the object's motion, caused by the surfaces in contact with each other.
- 7. It's another word for perpendicular in math and physics.
- 12. The coefficient of friction does not have a _____.
- 16. The weight of an object (force from gravity) is only equal to the normal force on this type of surface.
