Zero. Force is defined as the change of momentum over time: 

F = d(mv)/dt 

If mv is constant: 

F = mv(d1/dt) 

derivative of a constant is zero 

F = 0

Answer: Zero

Explanation:

  • We know momentum of a body is the product of mass and velocity of the body.
  • Force is the product of mass and acceleration.
  • We can say  P = mv and F = ma.
  • When we differentiate momentum at constant mass then we get force.
  • But here mv is constant.
  • F = \frac{d(mv)}{dt}

          = 0      [∵ mv is constant]

  • So, we can say if there is no change in momentum the force is also zero.
  • Hence, the force is zero.
