A small boy is playing with a ball on a stationary train. If he places the ball on the floor of the train, when the train starts moving the ball moves toward the back of the train. This happened due to inertia
An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion unless a net external force acts on it .
When a train starts moving forward, the ball placed on the floor tends to fall backward is an example of inertia of rest. Due to the reason that the lower part of the ball is in contact with the surface and rest of the part is not . As the train starts moving, its lower part gets the motion as the floor starts moving but the upper part will remain as it is as it is not in contact with the floor , hence do not attain any motion due to the inertia of rest simultaneously i.e. it tends to remain at the same place.

The momentum of a 5kg object that has a velocity of 1.2m/s is 6.0kgm/s.
<h3> MOMENTUM:</h3>
Momentum of a substance is the product of its mass and velocity. That is;
Momentum (p) = mass (m) × velocity (v)
According to this question, an object has a mass of 5kg and velocity of 1.2m/s. The momentum is calculated thus:
Momentum = 5kg × 1.2m/s
Momentum = 6kgm/s.
Therefore, the momentum of a 5kg object that has a velocity of 1.2m/s is 6.0kgm/s.

This question is incomplete; here is the complete question:
Marco is conducting an experiment. He knows the wave that he is working with has a wavelength of 32.4 cm. If he measures the frequency as 3 hertz, which statement about the wave is accurate?
A. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 3 seconds.
B. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 9 seconds.
C. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 3 seconds.
D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.
The answer to this question is D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.
Explanation:
The frequency of a wave, which is in this case 3 hertz, represents the number of waves that go through a point during 1 second. According to this, if the frequency of the wave is 3 hertz this means in 1 second there were 3 waves. Moreover, if you multiply the wavelength (32.4cm) by the frequency (3) you will know the distance the wave traveled in 1 second: 32.4 x 3 = 97.2 cm. This makes option D the correct one as the distance in 1 second was 97.2 cm.
