Here's the breakdown:
* Mass is a fundamental property of matter. It's a measure of how much "stuff" an object is made of. A soccer ball has a certain mass, whether you kick it or not.
* Kicking the ball doesn't change its mass. You're applying force to the ball, which changes its velocity (speed and direction) and momentum, but not its mass.
So, the answer is that the mass of a soccer ball remains the same whether you kick it or not.
