STATEMENTS

The correct statement among the given answers is letter d. an object in motion will remain in motion.

WHY?

In reality, object that is in motion (like a ball) will remain in motion unless it's stopped by something (a wall or any force).

This is stated in the first law of motion by Sir Isaac Newton -- an object in motion will remain in motion unless an outside force acted upon the object.
