    The direction of force on an upward moving ball is from

    A)  up to down                       

    B)  down to up

    C)  left to right                       

    D)  right to left

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

      Here, we need to investigate the relationship between the force on the ball and its direction of motion. When the ball moves upward, the force exerted on the same is in the downward direction. This force, caused by Earths mass and that of the ball, is known as the force of gravity. This force tends to slow the ball down and eventually make it come back to Earths surface. Hence, the direction of force on an upward moving ball is from up to down. The correct answer is A.
