- 1. A quantity having direction as well as magnitude, especially as determining the position of one point in space relative to another. electricity A form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons), either statically as an accumulation of charge or dynamically as a current.
- 6. A rule of conduct or action prescribed or formally recognized as binding or enforced by a controlling authority.
- 10. Is the force required to cause a mass of one kilogram to accelerate at a rate of one meter per second squared in the absence of other force-producing effects.
- 11. Increase in the rate or speed of something.
- 12. The SI unit of mass (equivalent to approximately 2.205 lb), first introduced as a unit of mass for the metric system.
- 13. Is a carefully thought-out explanation for observations of the natural world that has been constructed using the scientific method, and which brings together many facts and hypotheses.

- 14. The push or pull on an object with mass causes it to change its velocity.
- 15. The speed of something in a given direction.
- 17. The amount or number of a material or immaterial thing not usually estimated by spatial measurement.
