A nonzero net force acts on a moving ball, and the ball comes to a stop. Which statement is correct about the relationship between the net force and the ball's movement?(1 point)
Responses
An increase in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.
An increase in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.
A decrease in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.
A decrease in acceleration causes the net force to be nonzero because causation works in both directions.
The net force causes a decrease in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.
The net force causes a decrease in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.
The net force causes an increase in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.

The correct statement is:
**The net force causes a decrease in acceleration because without the force the ball's velocity would remain the same.**
This statement reflects Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object in motion will stay in motion at constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force. In this scenario, since a nonzero net force is acting on the moving ball, it results in a change of velocity (deceleration) leading to the ball coming to a stop.
