What term is used to describe how much an object weighs?
Mass
What term is used to describe the flow of air or fluid around an object?
The term that is used to describe the flow of air or fluid around an object is buoyant force. An example of buoyant force is when you float on an inflatable object in the swimming pool.
The tendency for an object in motion to remain in motion is called what?
Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. The term inertia is also used to describe the resistance of an object to any change in its motion. If an object is not moving, it doesn't want to move. If it is moving, it doesn't want to change is speed or the direction it is moving. This is covered by Newton in his laws of motion.
What is the term used to describe the build up of electrical charges on an object due to friction?
The term used to describe the build up of electric charge on a non-conductive material due to friction is static electricity.
When an object is seen moving in relation to a stationary object the stationary object is called the frame of reference or reference point?
This is usually called a reference point. Frame of reference is not an incorrect term, but it is used less frequently.
What is the term used to describe the moving of the continents?
Moving
What is the term used to describe moving air?
wind
What is the term used to describe moving from the heart out to the arm?
distal
What is the term used to describe the rate of an object's movement?
The term used to describe the rate of an object's movement is speed or velocity. Velocity is the same as speed but also measures direction.

What is the term used to describe water moving across a cell membrane?
osmosis
How difficult it is to slow down or stop an object?
Inertia. It is the term used to describe the resistance of an object to: 1) start moving (from rest) 2) increase or decrease speed (speed up or slow down) 3) stop moving 4) change direction 5) change shape
