They don't. If there are no external forces acting on a moving object, then the object
continues moving in a straight line with constant speed. Whenever an object slows down,
it must be the effect of an external force acting on it.

Does friction help objects speed up or slow down?

Friction typically slows down objects by opposing their motion. It generates heat by resisting the sliding or rolling of objects against each other. However, in some cases, such as with car brakes or shoes on a rough surface, friction can be used to slow down objects intentionally.


What force acts to slow down and eventually stop the movement of all objects?

The force that acts to slow down and eventually stop the movement of all objects is friction. Friction is a force that opposes the motion of objects when they come into contact with each other.

Why does an object moving through the air slow down?

=normally objects slow down because of the friction. this means that the surface area is in contact with the air particles so that will slow the object down.==or they put the breaks on .=


What is the force that causes moving objects to slow down?

The force that causes moving objects to slow down is called friction. It occurs when two surfaces are in contact and resist the relative motion between them. Friction converts kinetic energy into heat, causing objects to lose speed.
