If the resultant force acting on a body in different directions is zero, then the acceleration will be zero.
We know that, F = ma,
In the net force is zero, F = 0, then ma = 0
⇒ a = 0 [as m ≠ 0]
Question
Soni says that the acceleration in an object could be zero even when several forces are acting on it. Do you agree with her? Why?
