A student hit a high fly ball over second base in a championship softball game.

As the ball rises in the air, it is acted on by the force of gravity.

This force causes the ball to —

• slow down, change direction, and then speed up until it falls to the ground

• speed up, keep its same direction, and then slow down as it falls to the ground

• travel at the same speed until it hits the ground

• travel in the same direction until it hits the ground

An apple falls from an apple tree.

Which force moves the apple toward the ground?

• The law of thermodynamics will make the apple fall to the ground

• Due to the gravitational attraction between the earth and the apple

• Due to the gravitational attraction between the apple and the sun

• The force from Earth's rotation moves the apple to the ground.
