G-Force

The force of gravity

friction

the force that results when two materials rub against each other or
when their contact prevents sliding

speed

gravity

The natural force that causes smaller objects to move toward the
center of the earth.

acceleration

the rate of change of velocity with respect to magnitude or direction.

velocity

the rate of speed with which something happens.

potential energy

the energy of a body or a system with respect to the position of the
body or the arrangement of the particles of the system.

G-force

the force of gravity

kinetic energy

the energy of a body or a system with respect to the motion of the
body or of particles in the system.

friction

the rubbing of the surface of one body against that of another.

speed

full,maximum,or optimum rate of motion.
