What characteristics of motion can change without changing velocity of an object?
the position

the position
A ball is dropped from the top of a tall building. As the ball falls, the upward force of air resistance becomes equal to the downward pull of gravity. When these two forces become equal in magnitude, the ball will
fall at a constant speed.

When magnesium (Mg) metal is burned in the presence of oxygen (O2 ), magnesium oxide (MgO) is produced. The properties of magnesium oxide are different than the individual properties of magnesium and oxygen because magnesium oxide is
a compound.
