When you kick a soccer ball across a field it will eventually come to a stop. Does this prove or disprove Newton's first law of motion?

It disproves Newton's first law of motion because gravity is stronger than friction.

It proves Newton's first law because friction is an unbalanced force.

It proves Newton's first law of motion because gravity slows the ball down.

It disproves Newton's first law of motion because an object in motion should stay in motion.

Well, Newtons first law of motion says that an object in motion stays in motion until an unbalanced force acts upon it, so, the correct answer would be B, it proves Newtons first law because friction is an unbalanced force.

" Friction is a force that opposes the motion of objects. Friction is always involved in everyday situations. It is what slows the motion of moving objects, so you don't see objects moving forever in a straight line."
