If it were possible to remove gravity and friction, think about what would happen to a football if it were tossed into the air. Assume the football is in a vacuum (no gravity or friction) and is continuously moving, which force(s) would be acting on the ball?

A
A force must be applied to it when it slows to a position of rest.
B
A force must be applied to it before it slows to a position of rest.
C
No force is needed; an object in motion stays in motion.
D
Many forces must act upon it to keep it in motion.

Every action force has an opposite and equal reaction force. Determine which of these are action/reaction pairs. Check all that apply.A girl leans against a wall and the wall pushes on the girl.A baseball hits a glove and the glove pushes on the ball.A boy pushes on a door and the door swings open.A soccer player kicks a ball and then another soccer player kicks the same ball. A cat rubs up against a tree and the tree pushes against the cat.A student pushes another student standing in a line, and that student falls into the next student.

Why is Li able to avoid Raj’s tackle? Choose the best description.

A
Raj has more mass and therefore more inertia, so he can change his motion more easily than Li.
B
Raj has more mass and therefore less inertia, so he can change his motion more easily than Li.
C
Li has less mass and therefore more inertia, so he can change his motion more easily than Raj.
D
Li has less mass and therefore less inertia, so he can change his motion more easily than Raj.

A
It is in static equilibrium.
B
It has less friction.
C
It has inertia.
D
It loses gravity when in motion.
