Motion — practice question

The diagram illustrates the vertical forces acting on a ball while it moves downward through the air. The ball does not attain terminal velocity. Which row states what happens to the resultant force on the ball and what happens to the ball’s acceleration as it falls through the air?

  • Aresultant force decreases, acceleration decreases
  • Bresultant force decreases, acceleration increases
  • Cresultant force increases, acceleration decreases
  • Dresultant force increases, acceleration increases
