Question
Chapter 4, Problem 1FC
To determine
The correct option.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1FC
The correct option is, “(b) A single force acts on the object”.
Explanation of Solution
Description:
Newton’s first law (law of inertia):
If an object is at rest, it will be at rest unless any external forces act on it.
Similarly if an object is in motion, it will be in motion with the same velocity or speed in the same direction unless any external forces act on it.
From this statement it concludes that if an object moving at constant velocity, single force cannot act on it.
Therefore, the option (b) is correct and remaining options are incorrect.
Conclusion:
Hence, the correct option is, “(b) A single force acts on the object”.
