A rolling ball will eventually come to a stop. Why does this happen?

O

A. the ball's energy changes into elastic

potential energy

B. the ball has kinetic energy, but its potential

energy is always stronger

O

C. the gravitational potential energy of the ball

increases until the ball cannot move

D. friction from the ground changes the ball's

kinetic energy into heat

    (D) friction from the ground changes the ball's

    kinetic energy into heat

    Explanation:

    When a ball is roll on the ground, the electrons in the atoms on the surface of the ground push against the electrons in the atoms on the surface of your ball that is touching the ground. A rolling ball stops because the surface on which it rolls resists its motion, that is when two surfaces come in contact with each other, the surface of one tends to oppose the motion of the other. A rolling ball stops because of friction.
