An object of mass 2 kg is sliding with a constant velocity of 4 m s^–1 on a frictionless horizontal table. The force required to keep the object moving with the same velocity is
(a) 32 N (b) 0 N (c) 2 (d) 8 N

Open in App

Solution

As the object is not experiencing any damping force (like friction etc.) there is no need to apply an external force to keep it moving with the same velocity of 4 m/s.

So, F = 0 N.
