  1. 1. The force of gravity exerted on an object, equal to its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity.
  2. 2. A diagram that shows all the external forces acting on an object, used to analyze its motion.
  3. 3. A force that opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact.
  4. 4. The rate of change of velocity.
  5. 5. The force exerted by a surface perpendicular to an object in contact with it, preventing the object from passing through the surface.
  6. 6. The amount of matter in an object.
  7. 9. The magnitude of velocity, indicating how fast an object is moving.
  8. 10. A state where all forces acting on an object are balanced, resulting in no net force and constant velocity.
  9. 12. The average position of the mass distribution of an object.
