A slingshot is accurately aimed at a dangerous criminal, disguised as a green stuffed troll, hanging from the gutter of a building. The target is well within the slingshot’s range, but the instant the pebble is launched and moves with a speed v0, the troll lets go and drops to the ground. What happens? The pebble

if the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force on the object.

explanation:

this is best explained by having an understanding of newton's second law, which states that f=ma. you see, when the forces are unbalanced, net force (sum of all forces) is not zero. therefore making it necessary for the object to have an acceleration in the direction of the net force.

mistakes are ok
