A football quarterback throws a football. After it leaves his hand, what forces are acting on the football? Choose all that apply: The drag force from the air The normal force from the ground A thrust force The weight force from the Earth The force from the quarterback's hand

The force of weight and drag force of the air

Explanation:

This is because when the ball leaves the hand the only force acting on it is the gravity of the earth, therefore its weight, since the force applied by the quarterback is no longer being applied to the ball. You can also consider the drag force of the air in the ball but in some cases it is minimal and can be neglected.

The correct options are

The drag force from the air. The weight force from the Earth.
