My guess would be because the gravity from the Earth's core is constantly pulling the ball towards the ground. It's like the moon. Why doesn't the moon just float away in space? Because Earth's gravitational pull keeps it rotating around it. Therefore, the ball will always be pulled towards the core which keeps it from from rolling forever due to friction. But i may be wrong, even though this a quite a good answer, hope it is right!
The correct answer for the statement “All the scientific
theories used to explain the formation of the solar system are non-testable”. The
answers outdated, imaginative and unacceptable are wrong. These theories are
not proven and yet are not tested due to the complexity.
