Across
- 3. an object at rest stays at rest until acted upon by a force
- 4. occurs when something speeds up, slows down, or change direction
- 5. the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on the object divided by the objects mass
- 6. a measure of how hard it is to stop a moving object
- 7. forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force of zero
- 9. forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force that is not zero
- 11. an attractive force that exist between all objects that have mass
- 14. a push or a pull on an object by another object that is touching it
- 16. a push or a pull on an object
- 18. any motion in which an object is moving along a curved path
- 19. a force that one object applies to another object without touching it
Down
- 1. a principle stating that the total momentum of a group of objects stays the same unless outside forces act on the objects
- 2. for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
- 8. the gravitational force exerted on an object
- 10. the combination of all the forces acting on an object
- 12. in circular motion, a force that acts perpendicular to the direction of motion, toward the center of the curve
- 13. the tendency of an object to resist a change in movement
- 15. the forces two objects apply to each other
- 17. a force that resist the motion of two surfaces that are touching
