When Jackson throws a tennis ball in a straight path, what two forces cause the ball to eventually stop moving?

Physics

After Jackson lets go of the ball, there are two forces on it
that influence what it's going to do.  They are gravity and
air resistance.

Air resistance is just plain friction.  As long as the ball continues
to move through air, it loses kinetic energy to the air and gradually
slows down.

While the ball is in the air, there are no other forces on it that cause
it to stop moving. 

If you absolutely must have another one, it doesn't occur until the
ball hits the ground.  But that isn't even another force.  It's just more
friction, from scraping against concrete and grass.

Gravity pulls the ball down to the ground.  But gravity doesn't make
the ball stop moving.  In fact, gravity tries to make it move faster and
faster, and gravity would succeed if it weren't for all the friction that
the ball encounters.

Well, the force that originally caused it to start moving was inertia, but the  forces that cause it to stop are friction and gravity. Gravity pulls the object towards the center of the Earth, causing it to slow and eventually stop, and friction is the resistance between the ball and the ground (or whatever).

Hope this helps!

a) El Niño is defined as an abnormal weather pattern caused by the warming of the Pacific Ocean near the equator, off the coast of South America. The sun warms the water near the equator, which can make more clouds and, therefore, more rain. It has detrimental effects on biodiversity leading to its large-scale loss by
warmer sea temperatures leading to plankton and fish kills in coastal waters
lower sea levels leading to exposure of underwater coral reefs, causing their loss.

If the baseball and the plastic ball were moving at the same speed which ball would hit a bat harder
Lerok [7]
A baseball would hit the bat harder. This is because the baseball is a lot heavier and more dense than the plastic ball. The keyword that you're looking for is density. The baseball is dense.

You are moving a desk that has a mass of 36 kg; its acceleration is 0.5 m / s 2. What is the force being applied
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

18 N

Explanation:

Force can be found using the following formula.

f= m*a

where m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

We know the desk has a mass of 36 kilograms. We also know that its acceleration is 0.5 m/s^2.

m= 36 kg

a= 0.5 m/s^2

Substitute these values into the formula.

f= 36 kg * 0.5 m/s^2

Multiply 36 and 0.5

f=18 kg m/s^2

1 kg m/s^2 is equivalent to 1 Newton, or N.

f= 18 Newtons

The force being applied is 18 kg m/s^2, Newtons, or N

If I punch a wall, what is the Newton's 3rd Law Pair force?
UkoKoshka [18]
For every reaction, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that with every interaction, theres a pair of opposite forces on the object.
