Across
- 5. The resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.
- 7. A state in which all forces acting on an object are balanced, resulting in no movement.
- 10. The rate at which the speed or direction of an object changes over time.
- 11. First Law An object will stay at rest or move at a constant speed in a straight line unless acted upon by a force (also known as the law of inertia).
- 13. Second Law The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied (Force = Mass x Acceleration).
- 14. The amount of matter in an object, which affects its inertia and how it responds to forces.
- 15. Forces When two forces acting on an object are equal in size but opposite in direction, causing no change in motion.
Down
- 1. The speed of something in a given direction.
- 2. The force that attracts objects toward the center of the Earth.
- 3. A push or pull on an object that can cause it to change its speed or direction.
- 4. Third Law For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- 6. Force The overall force acting on an object when all the individual forces are combined.
- 8. The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.
- 9. The action or process of moving or being moved.
- 12. Forces When two forces acting on an object are not equal, causing the object to change its motion.
