Solution

According to Newton’s 2nd law of motion,

F = ma

Where, F is the force applied, m is the mass of the body and a is the acceleration of the body.

So,

In absence of a force,

F = 0

=> ma = 0

=> a = 0

Since, m cannot be zero for a body.

Zero acceleration means, body at rest will remain at rest and a body in uniform motion will continue its uniform motion. Which is Newton’s 1st law of motion.
