m=2kg
u=4m/s
v=4m/s (required to keep body moving with same velocity)
let's suppose time = t
so, a = (v-u)/t = (4-4)/t = 0/t = 0m/s²
so, f= ma = 2(0) = 0N
according to Newton's first law of motion
a body will continue to be straight motion or in a state of rest until an external force is applied on it , so in this case No force is required to keep body moving with same velocity
hope this helps

mass (m) = 2kg 
initial velocity (u) = 4m/s 


Force required to keep the body in same velocity is F = m x a 
No change in velocity means zero acceleration 
so F = m x a 
     F = 2 x 0 
     F = 0 N 

also , F = dp/dt = [mv-mu]/t 

if there is no change in velocity then u = v 
then mv - mv = 0 

F = 0/t = 0 N
