Can a net force be applied to an object and still have the object maintain constant speed. Explain.
A) No, a net force accelerates an object.
B) No, a net force will always slow down the object.
C) Yes, a net force does not always acelerate an object.
D) Yes, if the net force is perpendicular to the motion of the object it will only change its direction.
Yes, if the net force is perpendicular to the motion of the object it will only change its direction. In this case the object can experience constant speed circular motion. Its D
