Two things that aren't involved in speed: -- the straight-line distance between the start- and end- points. -- the direction from start-point to end-point.
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!
In rooms where there are multiple lights, a parallel circuit is better.
In a series circuit, if one light broke, all of the lights would turn off, as the circuit would be broken.
However, in parallel, if one bulb broke, the circuit could still be complete through the other bulbs, so they will stay on.
Hey there!
The answer is B, gamma rays.
Gamma rays have very short wavelengths (that are possibly millionths of a meter, even more), and very, very, high energy.
They are sometimes used for treating internal organs for diseases such as cancer.
Hope this helps!
