Despite a very strong wind, a tennis playermanages to hit a tennis ball with her racquetso that the ball passes over the net and landsin her opponents court. consider the following forces: 1 - a downward force of gravity.2 - a force by the "hit".3 - a force exerted by the air. which of the above forces is (are) acting onthe tennis ball after it has left contact withthe racquet and before it touches the ground? 1. 2 and 32. 1 only3. 1, 2 and 34. 1 and 25. 1 and 3

5. 1 and 3

Explanation:

Once released from the racquet, in absence of any external forces, the ball must continue moving at its initial speed in a straight line forever, according to Newton's First Law, as the "hit"force is no longer present.

Anyway, there are two external forces that continue acting upon the ball before it touches the ground: one is gravity (according to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation), and the other is the drag force due to the wind, exerted by the air.

So the right answer is 5. 1 and 3.

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
