Solution

The correct option is A

The resultant force on it is zero.


  1. Newton's first law of motion is also known as the law of inertia.
  2. The law states that a body at rest or uniform motion will continue to be at rest or uniform motion until and unless a net external force acts on it.
  3. Hence, an object will continue moving uniformly until the resultant force on it is zero.

Hence, option A is correct.
