Answer:

In the absence of friction or any other unbalanced force, a skateboard in motion will just keep on rolling. Explanation: If an object is already in motion, inertia will keep it moving. Therefore, a skateboard at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hopefully this helps :)
