An object moving horizontally across a table is observed to slow down. Which of the following statements is the correct explanation?

Multiple Choice

A- The horizontal forces on the object become smaller as the object slows down.

B- The vertical forces on the object become smaller as the object slows down.

C- The net force on the object is zero causing it to slow down.

D- There is a net backwards horizontal force on the object.

Answer #1

D- there is a net backward horizontal force on the object as it slows down.

So to slow down tge object there should be a force to stope the object it may be deceleration of the object or friction force.

A_ the object slows down the value of the horizontal force get slow down because the velocity get slow and hence the acceleration will be low so from the second law of motion of Newton we can say that force is proportional to acceleration that's why the force will also decrease in horizontal direction
