A ball is dropped from the top of a building. It initially moves at 40 m/s. After 0.5 seconds, it moves at 3.8
m/s.
What force is responsible for the slowing of the ball?
air resistance
gravity
normal
tension

Explanation:

I'm assuming you missed the decimal point in the initial velocity and that it should be 4.0 m/s. If after a half of a second it is moving a tiny bit slower, it would be because of air resistance. You can only neglect air resistance if the problems you are doing tell you neglect it.

answer; ///(74) degrees is your answer..
