Down
  1. 1. The total distance a vehicle travels during the driver’s effort to bring the vehicle to a halt; distance traveled during the driver’s reaction time plus the braking distance.
  2. 3. When the magnitude and direction of more than one force acting on an object give a net force unequal to zero.
  3. 4. The distance a car travels during the reaction time.
  4. 5. A force that exists at the boundary between any two pieces of matter that are in contact with each other.
  5. 6. When the magnitude and direction of more than one force acting on an object results in zero net force.
  6. 7. A desirable outcome given up to gain another desirable outcome.
  7. 8. the amount of matter in an object.
  8. 10. In engineering design, something that limits the solution to a problem.
  9. 11. The total distance an object travels divided by the amount of time it took the object to travel that distance.
  10. 12. A minimum requirement for how the design must function.
  11. 13. The time interval between the moment a driver realizes a problem and when the driver applies the brakes.
  12. 18. A push or pull.
