Question

A body under the action of several forces will have zero acceleration

• A. When the body is very light
• B. When the body is very heavy
• C. When the body is a point body
• D. When the vector sum of all the forces acting on it is zero

Answer 1

The correct option is D

When the vector sum of all the forces acting on it is zero

We have,

$\overline{F_{net}}=m\overline{a}$

If $\overline{F_{net}}=0$ then $\overline{a}=0$.
