- 7. the total, combined effect of all forces acting on an object, calculated as the vector sum of those individual forces
- 8. simplified visual representation of all the external forces acting on a single object or system
- 9. an object or location used as a stable or fixed basis for comparison to determine the position or motion of another object
- 10. a type of friction that opposes the motion of an object through the air, slowing it down
- 11. a vector quantity that describes the rate of change of an object's position over time, including both its speed and its direction of motion

Down
- 1. the continuous change in an object's position over time with respect to a frame of reference
- 2. the measure of the size, extent, or quantity of a physical property
