I haven't received my books yet and do not know the rule changes. In questions 1 and 2 there is a live ball penalty on defense during a scoring play. According to the answers, the penalty is enforced on the try. Does anyone have knowledge of this rule change?

Also, question 4: R1 muffs a free kick at his own 11 yardline. He recovers the loose ball at his own three yardline and his momentum takes him into his own end zone, where he is downed. Choices:
a) Team K scores a safety
b) The ball was dead the moment it crossed the goalline
c) It will be team R's ball at its own three yardline.
d) It will be team R's ball at its own 20 yardline.

ANSWER according to Referee magazine: A

I would like to have responses about momentum rule on free kick and why it does not apply to this situation.

Thank for all responses.
