If the force applied to the box is doubled, the constant speed of the box will increase to 6.0 m/s. O b. There is a force being applied to the box to make it move but the external forces such as friction are not "real" forces they just resist motion. O c. The amount of force applied to move the box at a constant speed must be more than its weight. O d. The amount of force applied to move the box at a constant speed must be equal to the amount of the frictional forces that resist its motion. O e. The amount of force applied to move the box at a constant speed must be more than the amount of the frictional forces that resist its motion.
