An object of mass 2 kg is sliding with a constant velocity of 4 m s 1 on a frictionless - Science - Force and Laws of Motion

Question

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

Kranav Sharma · Accepted Answer

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

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
