Newton's first law states that an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

If you roll a ball across the floor, you put the ball in motion, but after time, the ball stops. Does this violate Newton's first law?
A. No, because the ball is acted upon by the unbalanced force of friction.

B. Yes, because the ball should have continued rolling forever.

C. Yes, because the unbalanced force of friction should have kept the ball moving.

D. No, because Newton's laws are really only theories.
