The driver of a car accidentally leaves his briefcase on top of the car and prepares to leave for work. Because the car accelerated slowly, the briefcase did not move initially and is now moving with the car. According to Newton's first law of motion, what will happen if the car comes to a sudden stop?

• The briefcase will continue moving forward and slide off the front of the car.

• The briefcase will remain in place because the forces acting upon it are balanced.

• Friction will keep the briefcase in place, even while the car comes to a stop.

• It is impossible to predict what will happen without knowing the mass of the briefcase.

Two identical balls are dropped at the exact same time. One ball is released so that it can drop straight down; it has a horizontal velocity of 0 m/s. The other ball is thrown horizontally and has an initial horizontal velocity of 10 m/s. Assume no air resistance. Select the statements that correctly describe the movement of the balls.

• The first ball will hit the ground before the second ball.

• The forces acting on both balls are balanced.

• The balls will hit the ground at the same time.

• The forces acting on the first ball are balanced, but the forces acting on the second ball are unbalanced.

• The only force acting on the balls is the force of gravity, pulling them downward.
