Across
  1. 3. the opposing force exerted by air on an object moving through it, acting in the opposite direction of motion, slowing the object down due to friction with air molecules,
  2. 6. Stored energy
  3. 9. the fundamental measure of the amount of matter (atoms, particles) in an object,
  4. 11. is a measurement of the length between two points
  5. 13. something that is not moving with respect to an observer that can be used to detect motion.
  6. 16. the fundamental force of attraction between any two objects with mass or energy, pulling them towards each other,
  7. 18. is the rate at which an object's speed changes
  8. 19. a push or a pull on an object resulting from its interaction with another object, which can change the object's motion (speed or direction) or shape
Down
  1. 1. Released Energy
  2. 2. a fundamental physics principle stating that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another
  3. 4. the standard unit of force, defined as the force needed to accelerate a 1-kilogram mass at 1 meter per second squared
  4. 5. the SI unit for distance
  5. 7. of an object is a measure of its distance from a fixed point
  6. 8. is the change in an object's position over time relative to a frame of reference
  7. 10. is a special case of acceleration where objects get slower
  8. 12. = distance/time
  9. 14. Has both magnitude and direction
  10. 15. has magnitude but not direction
  11. 17. is a quantity; it is also a measure of distance moved by an object in a given time but it has direction as well
