Question
when using the computational model to model a ball falling through the air near earth, what could be a limitation of the model? (1 point)
not being able to account for gravity
not accounting for the gravity from the other planets on the ball
not accounting for the varying mass of the ball
not accounting for the variations in the air density as the wind blows
When modeling a ball falling near Earth, gravity is a fundamental force that is typically accounted for in basic models. The mass of a normal ball (assuming it's not something like a snowball gathering mass as it falls) is usually considered constant. The gravitational pull from other planets is extremely negligible compared to Earth's gravity for a ball near Earth. However, variations in air density due to wind (which affects air resistance) can be complex and might not be fully captured in a simple computational model.
