Unit 1 & 2 Speed, Velocity, and Force Crossword
Across
- 5. The starting position of a distance time graph, usually at the (0,0)point.
- 6. The actual path an object takes when traveling between two points.
- 10. When net force is zero or forces cancel out, can be seen in either an object that is at rest but is also true for objects moving at a CONSTANT velocity.
- 11. When an object is not moving or has 0N of force acting on it. Shown as a straight line on a distance time graph.
- 12. The overall sum of all forces exerted on an object. Forces that work in the same direction are added, and opposing forces are subtracted from one another.
- 13. Also called a reference frame or frame of reference. A coordinate system for specifying the precise location of objects in space.
- 14. How fast something moves, an expression of how much time it takes for a change in position to occur. Can be calculated by distance divided by time.
- 15. ________ speed is represented by a curved line on a distance time graph, which also shows acceleration.
- 16. A push or pull that causes an object to change its motion
- 17. The units used to measure force.
Down
- 1. Speed in a given direction.
- 2. The change in position from the end point compared to the starting position. The DIRECT path between the start and point of an object.
- 3. Results from different amounts of forces acting on an object, and causes an object to change its position, speed, or direction.
- 4. A graph used to show an object's position relative to time.
- 7. An object's resistance to a change in direction. Ex: sliding forward in your seat when the car suddenly stops.
- 8. A quantity that has both magnitude (number amount) and direction.
- 9. ________ speed is represented by a straight line on a distance time graph
