Question
Imagine a spaceship that is far from any large masses so that the effects of gravity are negligible. This spaceship has a velocity of 460 km/s and an acceleration in the forward direction of 6 m/s>2. What is the acceleration of a ball after it is released in this spaceship?A. 6 m/s>2 B. 10 m/s>2 C. 60 m/s>2 D. 460 km/s>2 Imagine a spaceship that is far from any large masses so that the effects of gravity are negligible.

Explanation / Answer
According to newton's first law
The ball continue
To move with same acceleration
Due to inertia of motion as there is no gravity/force
Due to large masses.
Option (a) is correct.
