Across
- 3. a force that opposes the relative motion between two surfaces in contact
- 6. a visual representation of all forces acting on an object, used in physics to analyze its motion or equilibrium
- 9. the support force exerted by a surface on an object in contact with it, always acting perpendicular to that surface
- 12. a single vector that represents the combined effect of two or more vectors acting on an object
- 15. a region of space where an object experiences a non-contact force
- 16. the vector sum of all individual forces acting on an object
Down
- 1. the point in a system of bodies or an object where the entire mass can be considered to be concentrated, and it acts as the average position of all the mass
- 2. a state where an object is balanced, with the net force and net torque acting on it being zero, resulting in no acceleration
- 4. a quantity that has both magnitude (a numerical value with a unit) and direction
- 5. a push or pull on an object that results from its interaction with another object
- 7. the rate at which velocity changes over time
- 8. the property of matter that resists any change in its state of motion
- 10. a fundamental property of matter that measures an object's inertia, or its resistance to a change in motion
- 11. the force of gravity on an object, calculated as the product of an object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity
- 13. the rate at which an object covers distance, calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time it took
- 14. the standard unit of force
