There is no new force applied because force applies only to the ball moving from the field of play into the end zone. Per 2-13-1 "Force is used only in connection with the goal line and in only one direction, i.e. from the field of play into the end zone." A1s muff of a ball that is already in the end zone does not result in the ball moving from the field of play to the end zone.
Per 8-5-2 EXCEPTION: "...and his original momentum carries him into the end zone where the ball is declared dead in his team's possession...the ball belongs to the team in possession at the spot where the pass or fumble was intercepted..."
1st/10 for B at the 3 in both scenarios.
