What is the net force on a Mercedes convertible traveling along a straight road at a steady speed of 100 km/h?
1. 10 N
2. 200 N
3. 100 N
4. All are wrong.
5. 0 N

Answer :

prozehus

Answer:

5) 0 N

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion: "The acceleration of an object produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force and inversely proportional to the object's mass" .

Because the vehicle travels at a constant speed, its acceleration at zero, so

[tex]A=F_{net}/m[/tex],

[tex]F_{net}=A*m; A=0\\F_{net}=0[/tex]
