Across
- 2. A push or a pull that can change an object’s motion or shape.
- 3. A state of matter where particles are close together but can slide past each other, allowing it to flow and take the shape of its container.
- 4. The amount of space that an object or substance takes up.
- 9. A state of matter where particles are packed tightly together and vibrate in place, giving it a fixed shape and volume.
- 10. The unit used to measure force, including weight; named after scientist Isaac Newton.
- 11. How much mass is packed into a certain amount of space; calculated using mass ÷ volume.
- 12. The invisible force that pulls objects toward each other, especially toward the center of Earth.
Down
- 1. A scientific model that explains that all matter is made up of tiny particles that are always moving and have spaces between them.
- 5. The amount of matter in an object; often measured in grams or kilograms.
- 6. A state of matter where particles are far apart and move freely, giving it no fixed shape or volume.
- 7. Anything that has mass and takes up space.
- 8. The force of gravity pulling on an object’s mass.
