Across
- 2. an attractive force that exists between all objects that have mass
- 4. law that states that if the net force acting on an object is zero the motion of the object doesn't change
- 6. the tendency of an object to resist a change of motion
- 11. law that states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
- 13. a principle stating that if the total momentum of a group of objects stays the same unless an outside force acts on the objects
- 14. a force that one object applies to another object without touching it
- 16. a push or pull on an object by another object touching it
- 17. the gravitational force exerted on an object
- 18. the combination of all the forces acting on an object
Down
- 1. in circular motion a force that acts perpendicular to the direction of motion toward the center of the curve
- 3. law that states that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object
- 5. the amount of matter in an object
- 7. the forces two objects apply to each other
- 8. a measure of how hard it is stop a moving object
- 9. any motion in which an object is moving along a curved path
- 10. a contact force that resists the sliding motion of two surfaces that are touching
- 12. a push or pull on an object
- 15. forces acting on an object that combine and form a net force of zero
