Across
- 2. the tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion.
- 5. a push or a pull that acts on an object.
- 6. a force that opposes the direction of motion of an object as it slides over a surface.
- 7. opposes the motion of an object through a fluid.
- 11. the constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.
- 14. the product of an object’s mass and its velocity.
- 15. the overall force acting on an object after all the forces is combined.
Down
- 1. the motion of a falling object after it is given an initial forward velocity.
- 3. the friction force that acts on rolling objects.
- 4. a force that opposes the motion of objects that touch as they move past each other.
- 8. the friction force that acts on objects that are not moving.
- 9. a force that acts between any two masses.
- 10. fluid friction acting on an object moving through the air.
- 12. the force of gravity acting on an object.
- 13. the force that causes a 1-kilogram mass to accelerate at a rate of 1 meter per second on each second.
- 14. a measure of the inertia of an object and depends on the amount of matter the object contains.
