As soon as a bowling ball rolls off the edge of a table its horizontal component of velocity

a) increases.
b) remains constant
c) decreases.

B) Remains constant

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is the motion of a projectile, which consists of two separate motions:

- A horizontal motion with constant velocity, since there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance)

- A vertical motion with constant acceleration, due to the presence of the force of gravity (pointing downward), that accelerates the ball towards the ground with acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2.

We are only interested in the horizontal motion of the ball: we said that there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction, therefore the horizontal component of the the velocity of the ball is constant.

the first, second, and fifth options

beta is electron from nucleus

something from nucleus has changed, but charge must be same for cons of charge
