Question

an object in motion tends to slowly decrease acceleration unless acted upon by an external force. false true

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object in motion will continue in motion with a constant velocity (constant speed in a straight line) unless acted upon by an external force. It does not state that an object in motion tends to slowly decrease acceleration. Acceleration change is related to Newton's second law (\(F = ma\)), and the concept of constant - velocity (zero acceleration in the absence of external force) is from the first law.

Answer:

False
