- 1. a wave in which particles move in the same direction of energy transfer
- 6. an element that has some metallic and some nonmetallic properties
- 7. a contact force that two surfaces exert on each other when they push or rub against each other
- 9. a change that alters the form or appearance of matter but does not form any new substances
- 10. a law that states if one object exerts a force on another object, then the second object exerts an equal but opposite force on the first object
- 14. mixture made of parts that are easily identified and can be separated
- 17. a law of physics that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be transferred or transformed from one form to another
- 18. the material through which a wave travels
- 20. energy due to the position of an object or its shape

Down
- 2. two forces acting on the same object that are not equal in strength and opposite in direction
- 3. a non-contact force that pulls objects with mass toward each other
- 4. law of motion stating that a body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in uniform motion, unless acted upon by an external force
