Question

A golf ball stays on the tee until the golf club hits it. Which of the following principles best describes why this occurs? Group of answer choices Newton's law of action–reaction An object will gain more momentum if more force is applied to it across a period of time. Newton's law of inertia law of projectile motion

Answer 1

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object continues to stay in its state of rest, or of uniform motion, until acted upon by an external force.

So in the case of the golf ball here, the ball stays in its state of rest, on the tee, until the golf club hits it, i.e. , applies an external force on it.

Hence we can say that Newton's First Law of Motion is the principle which is most suitable for explaining this phenomenon.
