Across
- 3. that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object
- 7. the sum of all the forces acting on an object.
- 8. calculated by dividing the total distance that something has traveled by the total amount of time it took it to travel that distance.
- 11. influence that results in motion, stress, etc. when applied
- 13. the product of a body's mass and its velocity
- 15. imparting acceleration of 1 m/sec/sec to 1 kilogram
- 20. When an object travels the same distance in the same period of time
- 21. every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.
- 25. the force applied in one direction is greater than the force applied in the opposite direction.
- 27. the resistance created by any two objects when sliding against each other.
- 29. the ideal motion of something subject only to gravity
- 30. for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction
Down
- 1. due to gravity
- 2. the application of balanced inward ("pushing") forces to different points on a material or structure
- 4. When two forces are the same strength but act in opposite direction
- 5. act of expanding in scope
- 6. an increase in rate of change
- 9. United States writer who lived in Europe
- 10. the resistance when a body is moved in contact with another
- 12. the tendency of something to stay in rest or motion
- 14. the speed of an object at a particular moment in time
- 16. a stable situation in which forces cancel one another
- 17. a force that keeps an object at rest
- 18. the particular part of space occupied by something
- 19. within some problem domain, the amount of momentum remains constant; momentum is neither created nor destroyed
- 22. a rate at which something happens
- 23. the action of stretching something tight
- 24. a quantity that has magnitude and direction
- 26. distance traveled per unit time in one direction
- 28. be at an angle
