According to principle of conservation of energy "energy cannot be created nor be destroyed but it can be transformed from one form to another". The given statement follows the Newton's 2nd law of motion which states "Rate of change of momentum(m x a) is directly proportional to the force(F) which applied in that direction".

According to principle of energy conservation do not destroy the energy, energy changes one phase to other phase.

Law of conservation of energy: Energy is neither created nor destroy but its can be change one form to another form.

Law of conservation of energy: Energy is neither created nor destroy but its can be change one form to another form.

Law of linear momentum: The total momentum of a system of masses in any direction remains constant unless acted upon by an external force in that direction.

BOTH LAWS OPPOSE EACH OTHER?

Free molecule have different masses & momentum so without acting force.

Here, there may be variation of air resistance and road evenness for that, it would change its momentum.

This question states that newton's first law.

Answer B is wrong because the given question is Newton second law and not the energy conservation law.

It is true that energy not created nor destroyed transformation of energy from one form to another possible. So given description is wrong.
