A force is required for any change in an object's motion to occur.

True
False

True

Explanation:

an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by another force

Answer/Explanation:

True. A force is what causes a movement in the first place. In order for an object to change motion a different force must be applied such as its opposing force.

Natural force: Thrust

Opposing force is drag.

Other forces are gravity and lift.

The opposing force will reverse the motions direction, the other forces will just change the direction without reversing.

answer; (arch); good luck

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
