Across
- 6. a net force that is not equal to zero, occurring when the forces acting on an object are not equal in magnitude and/or are not acting in opposite directions.
- 8. relating to the structure of the earth's crust and the large-scale processes which take place within it.
- 9. is a contact force that opposes the motion or attempted motion between surfaces in contact.
- 10. force is the push or pull exerted by a person or object on another object to cause a change in its motion, such as starting, stopping, accelerating, or changing direction, or to alter its shape.
- 12. is an interaction that causes a change in an object's motion or shape, typically described as a "push" or "pull".
- 13. the curvature of spacetime caused by the uneven distribution of mass and energy.
- 15. in physics, is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.
Down
- 1. is the pulling or stretching force transmitted axially along a flexible medium, such as a rope, string, cable, or wire, when it is subjected to opposing forces at its ends.
- 2. force occurs when two or more forces acting on an object are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in a net force of zero.
- 3. is a vector quantity that describes the rate of change of an object's position, including both its speed and the direction of its motion. It
- 4. force (or resultant force) is the total, single force that results from the vector sum of all individual forces acting on an object.
- 5. newton is a unit of force that will accelerate one kilogram of mass one meter per second squared.
- 7. is the rate at which an object's velocity changes over time,
- 11. is a fundamental quantity that describes the "amount of motion" an object has, defined as the product of its mass and velocity.
- 14. mass is the fundamental measure of the amount of matter in an object and also its resistance to acceleration when a force is applied (inertial mass).
