Question

Can there be displacement of an object in the absence of any force acting on it? Think. Discuss this question with your friends and teacher.

Answer 1

Yes, ● there can be displacement of an object in the absence of any force acting on it.  •Since mass 'm' cannot be zero, therefore, when force F = 0, then acceleration 'a' = 0. In such a situation, either the object is at rest or it is in uniform motion in straight line.

Answer 2

OF COURSE NOT IT IS POSSIBLE.....

BECAUSE WHEN THE OBJECT IS AT A REST AND PERPENDICULAR TO THE GROUND STILL THERE IS A FORCE CALLED NORMAL FORCE IS ACTING ON IT......

SO WHEN THE OBJECT IS AT REST .....THE OBJECT HAS FORCE BUT IT DON'T HAVE DISPLACEMENT......BECAUSE IT'S ACCELERATION BECOMES 0 AT THAT TIME.....


IT IS THE THINKING OF MINE ......☺
