Question

If the net force on an object is zero then the object has

Answer 1

Answer:

If the net force is zero, then the body has an acceleration = 0 m/s²

Explanation:

Force: This is defined as the product of mass of a body and its acceleration. Force is a vector quantity because it can be represented both in magnitude and in direction. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).

Net Force: This is the vector sum of all the the forces acting on a body.

Forces acting in the same direction are added while those acting in opposite directions are subtracted.

Example, if two forces F₁ and F₂ act on a body, in opposite direction, The net force F₃ is express below

F₃ = ma = F₁ - F₂ in the direction of F₁

From the example above, If the net force is zero, then the body has an acceleration = 0 m/s²
