What is the net force on a bright red Mercedes convertible traveling along a straight road at a steady speed of
The net force on a bright red Mercedes.
Answer to Problem 1TE
The net force on a bright red Mercedes is
Explanation of Solution
When an object moves with a constant speed it means that there is no variation of speed; thus, the acceleration is equal to zero. As acceleration and force are directly proportional so the net force acting over the object will be zero.
Here, a bright red Mercedes convertible is travelling with a steady speed of
Conclusion:
Therefore, the net force on a bright red Mercedes is
