Across
- 2. the rate at which an object's position changes, measured in meters per second
- 4. rate at which velocity changes with time, in terms of both speed and direction
- 5. a proposed explanation or educated guess
- 9. measures the length between objects or points without regard for direction
- 10. the force exerted on an object due to gravity
- 12. a quantity that has both magnitude and direction
- 13. the rate of change of position for a time interval which is very small (almost zero)
- 15. a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion
Down
- 1. the displacement (∆x) divided by the time intervals (∆t) in which the displacement occurs
- 3. a set of coordinates that can be used to determine positions and velocities of objects in that frame
- 6. the change in an object's position, meaning the straight-line distance between its starting point and ending point, considering both magnitude and direction
- 7. the location of an object at any given time
- 8. the motion of an object where gravity is the only force acting upon it
- 11. quantity that designates how fast and in what direction a point is moving
- 14. the natural tendency of objects in motion to stay in motion and objects at rest to stay at rest, unless a force causes the velocity to change
