You slide across an icy sidewalk. according to newton's first law, why will you eventually slow down? a. there are forces acting on you. b. you have inertia. c. you have zero acceleration. d. there is no air resistance.

The correct answer is A. There are forces acting on you.

Explanation:

Newton's first law states objects or bodies tend to remain in a certain state except if there are forces that act on them, in this way an object will keep moving or an object will not move except if there is an external force, this constant state is called inertia. According to this, if you slide across an icy sidewalk and eventually slow down is because there is a force that acts on you such as air resistance, friction, among others and these "break" inertia. Thus, you will eventually slow down because there are forces acting on you.

science is a systematic and logical approach to discovering how things in the universe work. true to this definition, science aims for measurable results through testing and analysis. science is based on fact, not opinion or preferences. the process of science is designed to challenge ideas through research.
