<h3>Answer</h3>

The object is at rest or is traveling at constant velocity.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity and velocity is a vector quantity which means that it is speed with direction.

If acceleration is zero it means that velocity is constant.

Constant velocity may include zero velocity or "at rest"

and

Speed is zero or speed is constant and no change in direction

A skater of mass 40 kg is carrying a box of mass 5 kg. The skater has a speed of 5 m/s with respect to the floor and is gliding

Yuki888 [10]

For the part a) we need only the momentum of the box and we have the data to find it.

Momentum is given by,

$p=mv$

where clearly, p is the momentum, m the mass of the box and v is the velocity.

Substituting,

$p=(5kg)(5m/s)\\p=25kg.m/s$

For part b) we need an analysis of the situation. We understand that the box on a surface that has no friction will continue to rotate at the same speed previously defined. The box can only stop with friction, so,

$p=(5kg)(5m/s)\\p=25kg.m/s$

Scientists are told to doubt everything and not believe anything that is not provable. Is this a strength or weakness of science
