Julie's foot was the unbalanced force that put a soccer ball at rest into motion. Once the soccer ball is in motion across a flat soccer field, what is the unbalanced force that stops the soccer ball and puts it at rest again?

• The wind coming across the field causes the ball to slow down and come to rest.

• The friction between the soccer ball and field causes the ball to slow down and come to rest.

• Gravity causes the ball to slow down as it climbs the hill and come to a rest at the bottom of the hill.
