Across
- 3. Acceleration depends on the object’s mass and net forces acting upon it.
- 5. The energy that travels in waves with some electrical properties and some magnetic properties such as sun light and microwaves.
- 8. The energy of machines (including humans) due to motion and position.
- 9. The form of mechanical energy based on the ability of the object to stretch
- 12. A place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion.
- 15. of Conservation of Energy Energy can be neither created nor destroyed, it can ONLY change between the different forms.
- 16. The ability to do work or cause change.
- 18. Any change in speed or direction (also know as velocity)
- 19. When the forces acting on an object in all directions are ALL equal. Also, when the net force = 0. NO motion occurs when balanced forces act on an object.
- 21. The energy associated with the movement of particles inside an object generating HEAT.
Down
- 1. The stored energy that results from the position or shape of an object.
- 2. When the forces acting on an object in opposite directions are NOT equal. Also, when the net force does not equal 0. Motion occurs when unbalanced forces act on an object.
- 3. For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction.
- 4. The distance an object travels per unit of time with no direction. It is calculated as distance divided by time.
- 6. A object at rest stays at rest or a object in motion stays in motion until another unbalanced force acts on it.
- 7. The energy an object has due to its motion.
- 10. The form of mechanical energy based on the height of the object
- 11. The speed of an object in a given direction.
- 13. The combination of all forces (pushes and pulls) acting on an object.
- 14. The energy that comes from electrical currents or charges such as electricity
- 17. Occurs when the distance from one object to another object is changing.
- 20. The energy stored in the bonds that hold compounds together such as in foods and fuel.
