Question
what net force is needed to maintain the constant velocity of a car moving in a straight line? multiple choice a force equal to the weight of the car a constantly increasing force zero a constantly applied force
Brief Explanations
According to Newton's first - law of motion, an object in motion with a constant velocity has no acceleration. Since force $F = ma$ (where $m$ is mass and $a$ is acceleration), when $a = 0$, the net force $F_{net}=0$.
