a body moves ...

Question

a body moves with a velocity of 2m/s in horizontal direction . to maintain this horizontal constant velocity , what shoulb be forces acting on it ?

Open in App

Solution

The body is moving at a constant velocity and therefore it is not accelerating. Thus, there must be no net force acting on the body.
