Question

1. the term that best describes the motion of an object that is slowing down is:

o a. free fall.
o b. gravity.
o c. deceleration.
o d. uniform.

Explanation:

• Free fall is the motion of an object under the influence of gravity only, without considering air resistance. It doesn't specifically mean slowing down.
• Gravity is a force, not a description of an object's motion when it's slowing down.
• Deceleration is the term used to describe a decrease in velocity, which means the object is slowing down.
• Uniform motion means the object is moving at a constant velocity (constant speed in a straight line), not slowing down.

Answer:

C. deceleration
