Answer 3

@estudier

Answer 4

Of course yes.

Answer 5

why?

Answer 6

and how?

Answer 7

U know Newton's first law of motion?

Answer 8

I guess u don't need force to keep something in motion once it's started.

Answer 9

law of inertia

Answer 10

Ignoring friction and all sort of thing...

Answer 11

howz that

Answer 12

but to displace anything we need force

Answer 13

An object remains in rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change that state by an applied force

Answer 14

Actually no. Once u applied Force and remove the force. The object will have constant velocity.

Answer 15

@sauravshakya

Answer 16

And velocity means there is displacement.

Answer 17

kinematic

Answer 18

but answer is yes

Answer 19

Without friction, air resistance etc (otherwise there are forces acting)

Answer 20

so what's the answer

Answer 21

@estudier @sauravshakya @sara12345

Answer 22

thnx...... @sauravshakya

Answer 23

The answer is YES.

Answer 24

The answer is yes provided that you ignore frictional, resistance, gravitational forces

(ie it is a completely unrealistic scenario)

Answer 25

ok i got it
