Solution

The correct option is B False

The explanation:

  1. No, if the net force acting on a body is zero, the body will not necessarily be at rest.
  2. In actuality, having the net force equal to zero is impossible.
  3. When the body's net force is equal to zero, the body cannot accelerate.

Hence the given statement is false.
