Motion a baseball player slides into third base. why according to the newtonian model of motion does the player eventually come to rest? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 09:51 Last updated by anonymous on 26 Dec 22:21
Friction comes into play. Newton's first law says that something will stay in motion until acted upon by an unbalanced force. That force, in this example is friction. Friction overpowers the force of the player's motion.
