Barry is conducting an experiment and rolls a tennis ball down a ramp. which best describes the motion of the tennis ball?

a.) it does not exhibit projectile motion and follows a straight path down the ramp.

b.) it does not exhibit projectile motion and follows a parabolic path down the ramp.

c.) it exhibits projectile motion and follows a straight path down the ramp.

d.) it exhibits projectile motion and follows a parabolic path down the ramp.

Correct answer choice is :

A) It does not exhibit projectile motion and follows a straight path down the ramp.

Explanation:

An inclined plane, also identified as a ramp, is a flat promoting surface turned at an angle, with one end higher than the other, applied as an aid for increasing or reducing a load. The force of gravity looks straight down, but a ball rolling down a slope doesn't go straight down, it reflects the ramp. Therefore, only the element of the gravitational force which leads along the path of the ball's motion can stimulate the ball.
