Because of the friction of the carpet. Friction: A force that opposes an object's motion.
I do not no but you do
yes
Yes, things such as longer grass and water on the greens will slow a ball down.
Used to stop and slow down things
Friction is the force that causes things to slow down due to contact. When two surfaces rub against each other, friction generates resistance that opposes the motion, ultimately causing the objects to slow down.
positive acceleration is when things speed up; negative acceleration is when things slow down; and zero acceleration is when things do not speed up or slow down, this is called constant speed, or no change in velocity.
motion
Friction is the force that can cause things to slow down. When two surfaces are in contact, friction creates resistance that opposes the motion of the object, leading to a decrease in speed.
Things can slow down for many reasons. Firstly, if your considering a human being, then humans can slow down because of a lack of energy, or they slow down because they are tired and need to rest. Sometimes humans slow down because they don't want to speed up. Secondly, considering machines. Machines somtimes slow down because their batteries are wasted, or you turn them off. Another reason could ba a machine like a helicopter, it slows down because it needs to land. Thirdly, lots of things slowd own because it's not safe to go faster or even stay at the speed they were at earlier.
friction and gravity
Probably. If there were such things as zombies.
No, it will not slow down your computer and no it will not give you virus
