As air resistance is negligible, horizontal speaking, nothing is affecting the velocity. So the horizontal velocity of the projectile stays the same, vh.
As for vertical velocity, since there's always a constant gravitational acceleration acting downward, namely g, the vertical speed will decrease until it reaches the top where it is 0, it then starting to increase in magnitude, downward, due to its gravitational acceleration g.
<span>So we want to know what happens to the momentum of the ball that rolls down hill and hits a box. So we need to use the law of conservation of momentum which states that the momentum must be conserved. It cant be transformed into inertia or mass. It can only be transferred to other object via some interactions like collisions. So it has to be a. transferred to the box and that is the correct answer. </span>
