Across
- 3. The extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied, provided that the limit of proportionality is not exceeded.
- 8. A single force on an object that has the same effect as all the original forces acting together.
- 9. When all the forces acting on an object are balanced.
- 11. An arrow which represents the size and direction of a force.
- 15. A device used to measure force.
- 16. A force of friction produced when an object moves through the air.
- 18. A force that acts between objects that are physically separated.
Down
- 1. A force that resists the movement of two surfaces that are sliding (or trying to slide) across each other.
- 2. The effect of one force is cancelled out by another force leading to a resultant force of zero.
- 4. An object or group of objects.
- 5. When the forces applied to an object in opposite directions are not equal in size.
- 6. The upward force that a fluid exerts on an object floating in it.
- 7. The force acting on an object due to gravity, measured in newtons (N).
- 10. The direct affect that one particle or object has on another particle or object.
- 12. The change in the shape or size of an object.
- 13. A force of attraction that pulls all things with mass or energy toward one another.
- 14. The unit for force.
- 17. A push or pull that acts on an object due to the interaction with another object.
