The net force acting on the wagon when it is pulled at a constant speed is zero (0).

What is net force?

The net force acting on an object is the sum of all the forces acting on the object. The net force on an object is determined by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

F(net) = ma

where;

  • m is the mass of the object
  • a is the acceleration of the object

Constant speed

Constant speed is a situation where the speed of the object does not change with time.

At constant speed, the acceleration of the object is zero (0).

F(net) = m x 0

F(net) = 0

Thus, the net force acting on the wagon when it is pulled at a constant speed is zero (0).
