Question

directions: read the \down\ and \across\ clues to determine which word from the \crossword list\ is the correct definition of the word. add it in the appropriate space below. down: 1. property of a moving object that equals its mass times its velocity. 2. a place where someone or something is located. 3. equal to the rise/run or the change of y - axis over the change of x - axis. 4. the distance an object travels per unit of time. 6. rate of change of velocity. 7. the measure of length from one point to another. 11. maximum velocity an object can reach when falling through the air. 12. how fast you are traveling and the direction of travel. 13. the measure of how long it takes for something to happen. across: 5. a change in a objects position relative to a reference point. 7. the variable that changes as a result of changes in the other variable, located on y - axis. 8. the distance and direction of an objects change in position from the starting point. 9. an educated guess. 10. downward movement of an object under only the force of gravity. 14. a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. 15. attractive force between two objects that have mass. 16. the variable as it changes affects the other variable, located on the x - axis. crossword list: acceleration, dependent, distance, displacement, free - fall, gravity, hypothesis, independent, momentum, motion, position, reference point, slope, speed, terminal, time, velocity

Explanation:

1. Momentum: Defined as mass times velocity, which matches the "Down" clue 1.
2. Position: A place where someone or something is located, fitting "Down" clue 2.
3. Slope: Equal to Rise/Run or change of y - axis over change of x - axis, corresponding to "Down" clue 3.
4. Speed: Distance an object travels per unit of time, for "Down" clue 4.
5. Acceleration: Rate of change of velocity, for "Down" clue 6.
6. Distance: Measure of length from one point to another, for "Down" clue 7.
7. Terminal: Maximum velocity an object can reach when falling through the air, for "Down" clue 11.
8. Velocity: How fast you are traveling and the direction of travel, for "Down" clue 12.
9. Time: Measure of how long it takes for something to happen, for "Down" clue 13.
10. Motion: A change in an object's position relative to a reference point, for "Across" clue 5.
11. Dependent: The variable that changes as a result of changes in the other variable, located on y - axis, for "Across" clue 7.
12. Displacement: The distance and direction of an object's change in position from the starting point, for "Across" clue 8.
13. Hypothesis: An educated guess, for "Across" clue 9.
14. Free - Fall: Downward movement of an object under only the force of gravity, for "Across" clue 10.
15. Reference Point: A place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion, for "Across" clue 14.
16. Gravity: Attractive force between two objects that have mass, for "Across" clue 15.
17. Independent: The variable as it changes affects the other variable, located on the x - axis, for "Across" clue 16.
