Across
- 4. the international unit of force
- 6. the quantity of motion an object has, defined as the product of its mass and velocity
- 8. the tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity
- 10. the fundamental force of attraction between any two objects in the universe that have mass or energy
- 12. relates to the theory of plate tectonics, which describes how the Earth's outer layer (lithosphere) is divided into largerigid plates that move and interact, causing geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain formation
- 14. Force-a direct force exerted on an object by another object, person, or machine, causing it to move, change direction, or deform
- 15. the rate of change of an object's velocity.
Down
- 1. the amount of matter contained within an object and its resistance to acceleration, also known as inertia
- 2. the rate at which an object changes its position, combining its speed and the direction of its motion.
- 3. the pulling force transmitted axially through a string, rope, cable, or other flexible object, acting to stretch or pull apart the connected parts
- 5. force- a net force on an object that is not equal to zero.
- 7. Force- two or more forces that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in a net force of zero and no change in an object's state of motion
- 9. push or pull on an object, which results from its interaction with another object.
- 11. a force that resists the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other
- 13. Force- the overall force acting on an object, determined by adding all individual forces as vectors
