Across
- 6. A force that slows things down when they rub against each other.
- 8. How fast something is moving in a certain direction.
- 10. The path something takes as it moves around a planet or star.
- 12. The idea that things like to keep doing what they’re doing (stay still or keep moving).
- 13. A force that slows things down as they move through the air.
- 15. A value with size and direction (like velocity).
- 19. The total force acting on an object when all forces are combined.
- 20. A value that only has size, no direction (like speed).
- 21. Forces that are not the same, causing movement.
- 23. A push or pull that can change how something moves.
- 24. Force The force that pushes back when you push something (Newton’s Third Law).
- 25. How far something is from its starting point (in a straight line).
- 26. More force makes things move faster (Force = mass × acceleration).
Down
- 1. Objects don’t move or stop unless a force pushes or pulls them.
- 2. How heavy something is because of gravity (Weight = mass × gravity).
- 3. How far something has traveled (no matter the direction).
- 4. Every action has an opposite reaction (when you push, something pushes back).
- 5. The force that pulls objects towards each other, like the Earth pulling you down.
- 7. The pull between objects with mass (the more mass, the stronger the pull).
- 9. – The fastest speed something can fall when gravity and air resistance balance.
- 11. How something moves from one place to another.
- 14. How quickly something speeds up or slows down.
- 16. When something falls, and gravity is the only force acting on it.
- 17. – Forces that are the same size but pull in opposite directions, so nothing moves.
- 18. How much matter is in an object (this doesn’t change, even on the Moon).
- 22. How fast something is moving (distance divided by time).
