Down
- 1. the quantity of matter that determines how much an object accelerates when a force is applied
- 2. having less magnitude or size compared to another quantity
- 3. becomes smaller or less in amount or magnitude
- 4. the mixture of gases surrounding Earth that can create resistance to motion
- 7. the force that occurs in response to an action force, equal in size and opposite in direction
