A body of mass 4 kg moving on a horizontal surface with an initial velocity of `6ms^(-1)` comes to rest after 3 seconds. If one wants to keep the body moving on the same surface with the velocity of `6ms^(-1)` the force required is

A

zero

B

4N

C

8N

D

16N

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Acceleration of `a=(v-u)/(t)=(0-6)/(3)=-2ms^(-2)`
Force `=mxxa=4xx8N`
