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.

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.
