What is the name of the force that could also slow donw the ball and its motion?

Well, it depends on thedirection the ball is moving in, and the surface it is moving on/through. Commonly, it's Air Resistance that slows a moving ball in the air , when the ball is moving upwards through the air, Gravitational Force will slow it down. However, if the ball is moving downwards(towards the ground), there is practically no force acting on the ball to slow it down, so it will keep increasing speed until it bounces off the ground.When the ball moves across a surface (ex. wood, grass, tiles, carpet), it would take some amount of Friction to slow it down.

What forces enable an object to be in motion?

If an object is moving, no force is required to keep it moving. Forces are required to CHANGE its motion, for example, to speed it up, or to slow it down.


What force can do to moving objects?

Forces can change the way the body is moving. Speed it up, slow it down, change its direction.. it depends if the body is in equilibrium or not and what forces are already in play

Can gravity slow down an object?

Yes, if the object is moving up, gravity will slow it down. For example, if you toss a tennis ball straight up, it will slow down until it finally stops, turns around and comes back down.
