Across
- 2. force-a direct push or pull on an object exerted by a person or another object, causing it to move, accelerate, or change its state of motion
- 5. the balanced force in an object
- 6. the natural tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion
- 8. the overall, total force acting on an object from all the individual forces combined
- 9. a force between two surfaces that are sliding, or trying to slide, across each other
- 10. the large-scale movements and features of the Earth's crust
- 12. a state where multiple forces act on an object, but their magnitudes and directions cancel each other out, resulting in a net force of zero
- 13. force-when two or more forces acting on an object are not equal, causing the object to move or change its motion
Down
- 1. the "power" when a body is moving, meaning how much force it can have on another body
- 2. the rate of change of an object's velocity over time, meaning its speed or direction chanNewtonwton- a unit of force that will accelerate one kilogram of mass one meter per second squared
- 3. the fundamental, invisible force of attraction that exists between any two objects with mass
- 4. a unit of force that will accelerate one kilogram of mass one meter per second squared
- 7. a scientific measurement of an object's speed and direction of motion
- 9. simple push or pull on an object that can change its motion, speed, direction, or shape
- 11. a pulling force transmitted along a flexible connector, such as a rope or cable, that stretches or pulls at the connector's ends
