Answer:

A.Inertia

Explanation:

As per definition of inertia we know that it is the property of mass which resist any change in the state of motion.

So if the object is moving in certain direction then it will continue in the same direction with same velocity until some external force will act upon it.

Here when force object is in infinite space then there is no force on that object so it will continue to move in the same direction with same velocity because of the property of inertia.

So here the motion remains in straight line without any change in the direction due to inertia of the body

A. because none of the other answers make sense, there is no air in space, acceleration would change the velocity, force would imply something moved it which is highly unlikely (unless we are talking about starwars), and inertia is a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged or a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.

3. The sum of the players' momenta is equal to the momentum of the players when they're stuck together:

(75 kg) (6 m/s) + (80 kg) (-4 m/s) = (75 kg + 80 kg) v

where v is the velocity of the combined players. Solve for v :

450 kg•m/s - 320 kg•m/s = (155 kg) v

v = (130 kg•m/s) / (155 kg)

v ≈ 0.84 m/s

4. The total momentum of the bowling balls prior to collision is conserved and is the same after their collision, so that

(6 kg) (5.1 m/s) + (4 kg) (-1.3 m/s) = (6 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (4 kg) v

where v is the new velocity of the 4-kg ball. Solve for v :

30.6 kg•m/s - 5.2 kg•m/s = 9 kg•m/s + (4 kg) v

v = (16.4 kg•m/s) / (4 kg)

v = 4.1 m/s

All fires require oxygen () There is no oxygen in that room (T) .
Marina CMI [18]

The sentences are invalid and unsound.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The fire is defined as the vigorous oxidation of a substance. Now oxidation can occur in presence of any oxidising agent. Like magnesium in presence of nitrogen in high temperature with a dazzling brownish flame to produce magnesium nitride. So fire can be produced in absence of oxygen.

Oxygen is present everywhere in world. So production of a whole room without oxygen is very tough to produce and costly process. So its very unsound.
