Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the net force acting on a 12 kg object moving with a constant velocity? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that the object is moving with a constant velocity.
  • Step 2: Recall Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object in motion stays in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force.
  • Step 3: Since the object is moving at a constant velocity, it means there is no change in its speed or direction.
  • Step 4: Conclude that if there is no change in motion, the net force acting on the object must be 0 Newtons.
