Understanding Newton’s Laws

Part A An object cannot remain at rest unless which of the following holds?

Hint A.1 How to approach the problemHint not displayed

Hint A.2 Newton’s 1st law: a body at restHint not displayed

The net force acting on it is zero.

The net force acting on it is constant and nonzero.

There are no forces at all acting on it.

There is only one force acting on it.

4. If there is a net force acting on a body, regardless of whether it is a constant force, the body accelerates. If the body is at rest and the net force acting on it is zero, then it will remain at rest. The net force could be zero either because there are no forces acting on the body at all or because several forces are acting on the body but they all cancel out.

Part B If a block is moving to the left at a constant velocity, what can one conclude?

Hint B.1How to approach the problemHint not displayed

Hint B.2 Newton’s 1st law: a body in motionHint not displayed

There is exactly one force applied to the block.

The net force applied to the block is directed to the left.

The net force applied to the block is zero.

There must be no forces at all applied to the block.

If there is a net force acting on a body, regardless of whether the body is already moving, the body accelerates. Ifa body is moving with constant velocity, then it is not accelerating and the net force acting on it is zero. The net force could be zero either because there are no forces acting on the body at all or because several forces are acting on the body but they all cancel out.
