Across
- 3. a parameter that is a measure of a spring’s resistance to being compressed or stretched
- 5. the amount of matter contained within an object
- 7. a unitless number that represents the ratio of the force of kinetic friction acting between two surfaces in relative motion to the normal force pressing those surfaces together
- 10. the product of the component of a force along the direction of displacement and the magnitude of the displacement
- 13. the energy associated with an object because of the position, shape, or condition of the object
- 18. the net work done by all the forces acting on an object is equal to the change in the object’s kinetic energy
- 20. the constant acceleration experienced by an object falling solely under the influence of gravity
- 21. The length of a spring when no external forces are acting on it
- 24. the International System of Units (SI) unit for measuring force
- 27. the potential energy stored in the gravitational fields of interacting bodies
- 29. a physical property or value that remains constant over time within a closed system
- 30. the energy available for use when a deformed elastic object returns to its original configuration
Down
- 1. the force that acts between two surfaces sliding past each other, always opposing the direction of motion of the object
- 2. the si unit of energy or work, the amount of energy transferred when a force of one newton acts on an object through a distance of one meter
- 4. the metric system that is used universally as a standard for measurements
- 6. the distance an object moved per unit in time
- 8. any form of energy that is not associated with the motion or position of an object
- 9. the energy of an object that is due to the object’s motion
- 11. another unit of power 746 watts
- 12. the rate of change of velocity per unit of time
- 14. the starting point or baseline in a system of measurement, essentially meaning "nothing" or the lowest possible value within that context
- 15. the total work done on an object by all forces acting on it
- 16. a physical quantity that is described solely by its magnitude (size), meaning it has no direction associated with it
- 17. the change in an object's position
- 19. the sum of kinetic energy and all forms of potential energy
- 22. a quantity that measures the rate at which work is done or energy is transformed
- 23. energy that has not been used or dissipated and is ready to be released
- 25. a unit of measurement for power, or the rate at which energy is used or produced
- 26. a push or pull exerted on an object that can cause it to change its motion
- 28. the sum of all forces acting on an object
