Can someone please explain to me why the net force of the ball changes in the Y direction and not the X Direction? I made little

diagram of how I think it should look. It's not making any sense to me.

Whenever an object is in projectile motion, that is, it has 2-dimensional motion in the x and y axis, the resultant force on the object is in the y-direction.
This is because once the object has been projected, or the ball has been kicked in this case, there is no longer a force being applied on it in the x-direction. The air resistance is also neglected so the ball's final velocity in the x-direction is equal to its initial velocity in the x-direction.
However, the force of gravity cannot be neglected and causes the ball to come downwards. Therefore, after the ball has been projected, the net force on the ball is downwards, due to gravity.

Two golf balls with the same mass were hit at the same time. Golf ball A went a shorter distance than golf ball B. What could be
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Golf ball A was hit with a weaker force

Explanation:

Golf ball B went a larger distance than golf ball A, so we could think friction affected golf ball A rather than golf ball B. That is why the first two choices are wrong.

The strongest forced applied made golf ball B go further.

How much KE does the car have if it weighs 450kg and moves at the speed of 23 m/s?​
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:-The formula of to calculate  KE = 1/2 m v^2

so we,

           KE = 1/2 (450kg)(23m/s)^2

           KE = 1/2 ×238050

            KE = 119025

Explanation: In Physics Formulas mean everything.

An element's atomic number is 25. How many protons would an atom of this element have?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
An element's "Atomic number" IS the number of protons
in the nucleus of each atom of the element.

If an element's Atomic number is 25, then it must follow ...
as the night follows the day ... that each atom of this element
has 25 protons in its nucleus.  If it has a different number of
protons in its nucleus, then it's an atom of a different element.
