Force and Translational Dynamics
A car is moving at a constant velocity. What can you say about the forces acting on the car?
The forces are unbalanced.
The net force is zero.
The car is accelerating.
There are no forces acting on the car.
Which of the following is an example of an external force acting on a bicycle?
