Naima and Tadeo are playing with a ball in an open field. Naima kicks the ball to Tadeo, but there's a slight hill between them. What happens to the ball when it rolls towards the hill? Provide a very brief response.
The ball will slow down as it rolls up the hill because it is working against the force of gravity. As it reaches the point where its upward momentum is no longer sufficient to counteract the pull of gravity, it will stop and then begin to roll back down the hill unless it has enough energy to reach the peak and roll over to the other side where Tadeo is standing. If Tadeo is standing at the top of the hill or beyond the peak, he will see the ball rolling up towards him and then possibly rolling over the peak to reach him, depending on the initial force Naima gave the ball. If Tadeo is standing on the same side of the hill as Naima, he would not be able to see the ball until it comes back over the peak or appears from the top of the hill.
