Across
  1. 5. an object that travels through the air and experiences only acceleration due to gravity
  2. 6. refers to the interchangeability of order in a function; vector addition uses this property because the order in which vectors are added together does not affect the final sum
  3. 8. the magnitude of displacement between two positions
  4. 10. the SI base unit for time
  5. 12. speed in a given direction
  6. 13. ___ relationships can be written as y = mx + b
  7. 15. the location of an object at a particular time
  8. 17. the study of motion without considering its causes
  9. 19. the study of the interactions between matter and energy
  10. 20. the rate of change in velocity; the change in velocity over time
  11. 21. the SI base unit for mass
  12. 22. a quantity that is described by magnitude, but not direction
Down
  1. 1. the difference in y-value (the rise) divided by the difference in x-value (the run) of two points on a straight line
  2. 2. the SI base unit for length
  3. 3. a description of how close a series of measurements are to one another
  4. 4. in scientific notation the ___ is always greater than one and less than ten
  5. 7. a quantity that is described by both magnitude and direction
  6. 9. when dividing you must ___ the exponents
  7. 11. the change in position of an object
  8. 14. a ratio of equivalent measurements
  9. 15. created when graphing quadratic relationships
  10. 16. the degree to which a measured value agrees with correct value for that measurement
  11. 18. created when graphing inverse relationships
  12. 19. scientific notation is written as a ___ of two numbers
  13. 20. when multiplying you must ___ the exponents
  14. 23. resistance a frictional force that slows the motion of objects as they travel through the air; when solving basic physics problems, this is assumed to be zero
