If the sign of work is negative, that means the force and the motion are in opposite directions.
Let's say you see something roll off of the shelf. You catch it, and you let it down slowly and gently.
Gravity exerted down-force on it and it moved down. Gravity did positive work on it.
YOU exerted UP-force on it and it moved down. YOU did negative work on it.
(Also, the falling object exerted down-force on your hand, and your hand moved down. The falling object did positive work on your hand ! Where did THAT energy come from ? It came from the potential energy that the object had while it was on the shelf. Your hand absorbed that energy on the way down, doing negative work. So the object didn't have any kinetic energy when it reached the floor, and it did NOT splinter the floor or shatter in smithereens. It had barely enough energy left to make a sound when it hit the floor.)
Answer:
The net force applied to the car is zero.
Explanation:
We are given that a car is moving to the left with constant velocity.
When the car moving with constant velocity
Then, the final velocity=Initial velocity
Change in velocity=Final velocity- initial velocity=0
When change in velocity is zero then , acceleration of car
When acceleration is zero then, By Newtons second law
The net force applied on the car will be zero.
Option C:The net force applied to the car is zero.
