A toy car rolls down a straight inclined track and its speed increases steadily. At the moment when the car reaches the flat surface at the base of the track, its speed remains constant. Which statement best explains why the speed of the car remains the same when it reaches the flat surface? The forces on the car are balanced.

Gravity is no longer acting on the car.

The force of the track acting on the car slows it down.

Frictional force is greater on the flat surface of the track.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
