The answer is A. This is a statement of Newton's First Law of Motion.

Consider Newton's Second Law, which for constant mass says F = ma. If forces are balanced, F = 0. Therefore m*a = 0. Since m has a nonzero value, we find that a = 0.

The object is not accelerating when forces are balanced, i.e. it's velocity isn't changing. It is moving at a constant speed when this velocity is nonzero, and is stationary when the velocity is zero.

I hope this helps you :)

) a 1.0 kilogram laboratory cart moving with a velocity of 0.50 meter per second due east collides with and sticks to a similar
ZanzabumX [31]
Momentum would be the same before and after the collision
 Before the collision:
 Momentum of the single cart: 1 * 0.50 = 0.50
 After the collision
 velocity = 0.25m / s
 1 * 0.25 + 1 * 0.25 =
 0.25 * (1 + 1) =
 0.25 * 2 =
 0.50
 Now new momentum will be 0.5
 answer
