The first one is actually Newton's First Law of Motion. 

Newton's First Law of Motion is commonly stated as "an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force." This sled is moving across the ice at the same constant speed and velocity meaning it will won't stop unless an outside force acts upon it. An example being someone coming and grabbing the sled or maybe the sled slips off of the ice and finds itself stuck in a pile of snow. Similarly, if the sled was not moving, it would not move unless acted upon again by an outside force. 

You believed it to be Newton's Third Law, but for future reference, his third law is more about every action having an equal opposite reaction. This wouldn't explain what is currently happening with the sled. A helpful tip into figuring out where to start in figuring out the answer I got is in the example you gave it literally states "with a constant velocity" which also ends up being in the description of Newton's First Law. Though, don't rely on that because the answer could have had a made up definition.

Unfortunately, I do not know the answer to your other question. I apologize. Hope this helped.

Which statement is true?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

A. Speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.

Explanation:

A scalar quantity is one that consists of only a numerical value.

Speed is a scalar quantity because only the instantaneous value is indicated, for example the speedometer of a car that tells you your speed at the moment but not where you are going or in what direction are you going.

On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity. Because it is composed of a <u>magnitude and a direction</u>, for example 10m/s to the south is a velocity, and 10m/s is a speed.

zhenek [66]

Experimental Evidence.

Scientists conduct experiments or observations to gather evidence that either support or disprove a given hypothesis. Hence, all the scientific explanations are based on this body of observations.
