6. The combination of all the forces acting on an object.
7. Law that states that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by the mass.
11. A push or pull on one object by another object that is touching it.
13. In circular motion, a force that acts perpendicular to the direction of motion, toward the center of the curve.
14. Law that states if the net force acting on an object is zero the motion of the object does not change.
15. Forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force of zero.
16. A principle stating that the total momentum of a group of objects stays the same unless outside forces act on the objects.

1. The forces 2 objects apply to each other.
2. A contact force that resists the sliding force motion of surfaces that are touching
3. The tendency of an object to resist change in its motion.
4. An attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass.
5. A measure of how hard it is to stop a moving object.
6. A force that one object applies to another object without touchin it.
