Question

For the following statements select all that are TRUE, regarding force and motion.
Select all that are True.
A) To keep an object moving at a constant velocity, a small net force is required to prevent it from slowing down.
B) If an object has a constant velocity, the net force acting on it must be zero.
C) If there is a net force acting on an object, the object's velocity will change.
D) If two different objects are under the influence of equal forces, they will have equal accelerations.
E) If an object has a constant speed, the net force acting on it must be zero.
F) If an object at rest remains at rest, the net force acting on it must be zero.

Explanation / Answer

The following conculsions are drawn assuming surface is Frictionless.

A)
To keep an object moving at a constant velocity, a small net force is required to prevent it from slowing down = FALSE

(B)
If an object has a constant velocity, the net force acting on it must be zero = TRUE.

(C)
If there is a net force acting on an object, the object's velocity will change = TRUE.

(D)
If two different objects are under the influence of equal forces, they will have equal accelerations = FALSE.

(E)
If an object has a constant speed, the net force acting on it must be zero = TRUE.

(F)
If an object at rest remains at rest, the net force acting on it must be zero = TRUE.
