Mechanics & Newton's Laws

Across
in physics, how fast something happens, or how much something changes per unit of time; a change in quantity divided by the time it takes for the change to occur.
Any object that moves through the air or through space, acted on by gravity (and air resistance, if any)
A measure of an object’s inertia; also a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Depends only on the amount of and kind of particles that compose an object-not on its location as weight does).
An object that falls around Earth or some other body rather than falling into it.
A quantity in physics, such as mass, volume, and time, that can be completely specified by its magnitude and has no direction.
The moving of something from its place or position
A quantity in physics, such as force that has both magnitude and direction.
The reluctance of any body to change its state of motion. Mass is the measure of inertia.
In general a state of balance. Example, the state of a body on which no net force acts
one of the vectors, often mutually perpendicular, whose sum is a resultant vector. Any resultant vector may be regarded as the combination of two or more components
Speed together with the direction of motion.
The force that acts to resist the relative motion (or attempted motion) of objects or materials that are in contact.
Down
The force on a body due to the gravitational attraction of another body (commonly Earth)
The process of resolving a vector into components. In optics, a measure of how well closely adjacent optical images are distinguished.
The vector sum of two or more component vectors.
is the rate at which velocity is changing with respect to time.
The fundamental SI unit of mass. One kilogram is the amount of mass in one liter of water at 4 degrees Celsius.
is the rate at which distance is covered, and it is measured in units of distance divided by time.
Any influence that tends to accelerate an object; a push or pull; measured in newtons. A vector quantity
SI unit of force. One newton (N) is the force applied to a one-kilogram mass that will produce an acceleration of one meter per second per second.
