Question

According to Newton's First Law of Motion, if a ball rolls in a straight line in an open field, what will happen to the ball? Question 5 options: The ball will not change its velocity The ball will continue on forever The ball will slow down. The ball will speed up.

Answer 1

The ball will slow down because of friction from the ground and I suppose wind resistance would be acting against it as well.

Answer 2

Newton's first law of motion says an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by a force while an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an opposite force.

Assuming that there is friction between the ball and the ground the ball will eventually slow down.
