Amy throws a softball through the air. what are the different forces acting on the ball while it’s in the air? the softball experiences force as a result of amy’s throw. as the ball moves, it experiences from the air it passes through. it also experiences a downward pull because of . nextreset

As the ball moves, it experiences from the air it passes through. It also experiences a downward pull because of gravity

Explanation:

When Amy throws a ball in the air then initially the force is applied by Amy to accelerate the ball in the air.

Now after throwing into the air the ball will have forces as per the FBD

Ball will have a downward force which is due to gravity and its magnitude is always remains the same

Now ball also have another force opposite to the direction of motion due to air drag.

This air drag force depends on the speed of the ball and always opposite to the velocity of the ball.

so correct answer will be

As the ball moves, it experiences from the air it passes through. It also experiences a downward pull because of gravity.

grav forces affect all objects magnetic forces affect magnetic objects and electric currents
