Across
- 2. for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction- forces occur in pairs, action-reaction
- 5. the gravitational force exerted on an object
- 7. a force that resists motion
- 10. a force that one object can apply to another object without touching it
- 12. the forces two objects apply to each other
- 16. any motion in which an object is moving along a curved path
- 18. the total momentum of a group of objects stays the same unless outside forces act on the objects
Down
- 1. an attractive force that exists between all objectsis that have mass
- 3. a push or pull on an object
- 4. acceleration occurs if something speeds up, slows down, or changes direction
- 6. forces actcombinesan object that combine and form a net force of zero
- 8. inertia- object at rest stays at rest object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by a force
- 9. a measure of how hard it is to stop a moving object
- 11. in circular motion, a force that acts perpendicular to the direction of motion, toward the center of a curve
- 13. the combination of all the forces action on an object
- 14. a push or a pull on one object that is touching it
- 15. the tendency of an object to resist change in its motion
- 17. is the amount of matter in an object
