6. Draw conclusions: Newton’s first law states that an object in motion will travel at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. How do these experiments show this?

I’m not sure what experiments you’re referring to. Maybe if there is a Frictional force that stops and object from sliding after a period of time instead of it continuing to slide forever.

You can test if it’s true by holding a pencil in mid air over a table and the table is supposed to be the unbalanced forced that stopped the pencil from moving at the constant velocity it was going by.
