Question

select the correct answer. darryl throws a basketball at the gym floor. the ball bounces once on the floor and comes to rest in his coachs hands. at which point are all the forces on the basketball balanced? a. the moment the ball leaves darryls hand b. the moment the ball touches the floor c. when the ball is in the air d. when the ball starts falling downward before coming to rest e. the moment the ball comes to a complete rest

Explanation:

Balanced forces occur when net force is zero (object at rest or constant velocity). When the ball is at complete rest, upward force from the coach's hand equals downward gravity, resulting in balanced forces. Other options involve acceleration (unbalanced forces).

Answer:

E. the moment the ball comes to a complete rest
