Question

what will happen to a moving object if there are no external forces acting on it?

Answer 1

Answer:

if there is slide or low friction it will stop moving affer some time

Answer 2

Given:

A moving object with no external forces acting on it

To find:

What will happen to its motion?

Solution:

• Let's assume that an object is moving and there are no external forces acting on the object.

• This means that the net external force is zero.

• This condition is also known as TRANSLATIONAL EQUILIBRIUM.

Now, if we neglect friction :

• As per Newton's 1st Law, the object will continue to move until and unless an external force acts on it.

However, if friction is considered:

• The object will experience a retardation and will stop moving after sometime.
