This is called "blanking the end." In curling, whichever team scores gives the "hammer" (the advantage of having the last shot) to the other team for the next end. If no one scores ("blank end"), the team that has the hammer keeps it for the next end. If the team with the hammer has a choice of whether to score 1 point and give up the hammer, or blank the end and keep the hammer, they will usually purposely blank the end, carry the hammer to the next end, and to try to score more than one point in the next end.

Kinetic energy and lack of opposing forces such as friction.


According to Galileo an object moving without opposing friction or other opposing forces will?

According to Galileo, an object moving without opposing friction or other forces will continue moving at a constant velocity in a straight line. This is described by the first law of motion, known as the law of inertia.

When the sum of two opposing forces is zero?

When the sum of two opposing forces is zero, they are said to be in equilibrium. This means that the forces cancel each other out, resulting in no net force acting on the object. As a result, the object will remain either at rest or move at a constant velocity.


How do opposing forces affect the motion of an object if the forces are balanced?

If opposing forces are balanced, the object will remain at rest or continue to move at a constant velocity. Balanced forces create a state of equilibrium where the net force on the object is zero, leading to no change in its motion.

How can the sport of curling be used to illustrate newtons first law of motion?

In curling, a stone will remain at rest or in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force - illustrating Newton's first law of motion. The stone will continue moving in a straight line due to inertia until the sweepers apply force to change its trajectory. This demonstrates how an object resists changes to its motion unless an external force is applied.


What are the challenges to peace building?

1) Skepticism of the opposing party (or parties). 2) An opposing party that is overly aggressive, that wants confrontation (usually to prove theirselves). 3) Remaining hypervigilant in being careful that you or the opposing party doesn't make any mistakes while building peace. This often creates tension for both sides. The best way to build peace is to allow the opposing force to watch you from a distance while not in direct contact, allow them to come to you peacefully on their terms, and be careful not to be too "opinionated," but remain calm, polite, and as civil as possible without trying too hard to be their 'friend.'
