Across
- 3. a quantity having direction as well as magnitude, especially as determining the position of one point in space relative to another
- 7. the force acting between two surfaces that are sliding past each other
- 8. the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another
- 10. a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition
- 12. a force that acts to keep an object stationary, preventing it from moving
- 13. the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity
- 15. the combined effect of all the forces on the object's acceleration,
- 16. the speed of something in a given direction
- 17. the action or process of moving or being moved
- 18. the rate of change of velocity per unit of time
- 19. the moving of something from its place or position
- 20. the universal force of attraction acting between all bodies of matter
Down
- 1. a dimensionless number that describes the amount of resistance an object encounters when trying to slide across a surface
- 2. states that an object will remain at rest or continue moving in a straight line at a constant speed unless acted upon by an external force
- 4. a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged
- 5. base unit for measuring mass
- 6. the force needed to accelerate a mass of one kilogram by one meter per second squared
- 8. strength or energy as an attribute of physical action or movement
- 9. states that the force acting on an object is equal to the object's mass multiplied by its acceleration
- 11. the quantity of matter which a body contains, as measured by its acceleration under a given force or by the force exerted on it by a gravitational field
- 14. states that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction,"
