Across
- 2. force of friction between an object and a fluid
- 3. when air resistance equals gravity an object stops accelerating and continues to fall at a constant velocity
- 5. amount of force exerted on a given area
- 6. amount of matter in a given volume
- 9. pressure caused by the weight of the atmosphere
- 11. unbalanced force that causes objects to move in a circular path
- 12. unpredictable flow of fluids
- 14. unit of measure of force
- 15. when only gravity is pulling down on an object and no other forces are acting on it
- 18. measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object
- 20. rate at which velocity changes
- 21. force of friction due to motion from sliding an object
- 22. upward force that fluids exert on all matter
- 23. force that opposes or restricts motion in a fluid
- 28. force of friction between a rolling object and another surface
- 30. upward force caused by fast-moving air above a plane’s wing
- 31. tendency of all objects to resist any change in motion
- 33. acceleration that occurs in a circular motion
- 34. property of a moving object that depends on the object’s mass and velocity
- 35. the speed of an object in a particular direction (rate of change of position)
- 36. force of attraction between objects that is due to their masses
- 37. a change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid will be transmitted equally to all parts of that fluid
Down
- 1. as the speed of a moving fluid increases, its pressure decreases
- 4. forward force produced by a plane’s engine
- 7. when a force is applied to an object but does not cause the object to move
- 8. velocity that results from combining the velocities of two objects
- 10. curved path an object follows when thrown or propelled near the surface of the Earth
- 13. force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are touching
- 16. a push or pull
- 17. the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the volume of fluid that the object displaces
- 19. any material that can flow and that takes the shape of its container
- 21. the rate at which an object moves
- 24. an object that changes position over time when compared with a reference point
- 25. fluid friction that opposes motion of objects through air
- 26. an object that appears to stay in place as we observe an object in motion
- 27. devices that use liquids to transmit pressure from one point to another
- 29. when net force is not zero; produces change in motion
- 32. force that results from combining all the forces exerted on an object
