Question

If a car is traveling westward with a constant velocity of 20m/s what is the net force acting on it

Answer 1

Answer:

zero because force=mass*acceleration

there is no acceleration

Answer 2

Answer:

F= 0 N

Explanation:

Given that Velocity(v)  is constant.

We also know that

Form Second law of Newtons the rate of change of linear momentum is equal to the force.

Linear momentum

P = m v

$F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

If velocity is constant then

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0$

So we can say that force F

$F=m\times 0$

F= 0 N
